Lucinda Williams at The Music Hall

Description

Lucinda Williams is one of America’s most critically acclaimed songwriters and recording artists. A Triple Grammy Award winner, she is considered a leading light of the so-called “alt-country” movement. Her songs, with their simple chord structures and gorgeous melodies, incorporate elements of rural blues, traditional country, and rock and roll. They are distinguished by evocative, plain-spoken lyrics – delivered in a dry Louisiana drawl - that investigate the human mystery. Probably best known forPassionate Kisses and Righteously, she has been called “America’s best songwriter” by Time magazine and her album, Car Wheels on a Gravel Road, was named to Rolling Stone’s “500 Greatest Albums of All Time.”
