Events Description
Bonnie Raitt is a singer, songwriter, and guitarist whose unique style blends blues, R&B, rock, and pop. After 20 years as a cult favorite, she emerged into stardom in the early 90s with her Grammy Award-winning albums, Nick of Time and Luck of the Draw. The thirteen-time Grammy winner was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2000 and Rolling Stone named her one of the “100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time” and one of the “100 Greatest Singers of All Time.”
Raitt is as known for her lifelong commitment to social activism as she is for her music. She has long been involved with the environmental movement, performing concerts around oil, nuclear power, mining, water, and forest protection since the mid-‘70s. She was a founding member of MUSE (Musicians United for Safe Energy), which produced the historic concerts, album and film NO NUKES (1979,) as well as a founding member of The Rhythm and Blues Foundation, which works for royalty reform and recognition of generations of pioneer R&B artists. She continues to work on safe energy issues in addition to environmental protection, social justice, Native American and human rights, as well as artist’s rights and music education.
On tour for the better part of the last four years, Raitt has connected with audiences in North America, the UK, Ireland, Europe and Australia. Now Raitt and her band are on tour again, headlining concerts on the West Coast of the U.S. and across Canada performing songs that span her enduring catalog.
