“Live from Laurel Canyon – Songs and Stories of American Folk Rock” is a unique performance that combines live music with narrated stories about the artists who lived in Laurel Canyon, a Los Angeles neighborhood near Hollywood. In the 1960s and 1970s the area, like Greenwich Village in New York City and Haight-Ashbury in San Francisco, was home to singers and songwriters who developed a new music genre, Folk Rock that changed pop music forever.
Live from Laurel Canyon put their own spin on songs by some of the era’s most iconic bands including the Eagles, America, Linda Ronstadt, Jackson Browne, Carole King, Neil Young, the Doors, Buffalo Springfield, the Mamas and the Papas, and Crosby, Stills & Nash.
Live from Laurel Canyon is much more than a tribute band. The musicians not only perform the hits that made these artists famous, but they also perform them in their own way. In addition, they tell stories about the inspiration behind the songs that defined such a vital era in American music. A review says:
“’Live from Laurel Canyon’ is a fabulous night of music and historical references performed by a fine group of musicians who left the audience wanting more and also completely satisfied.”
Live from Laurel Canyon is scheduled to appear on September 26. Organizers who plan shows like this can use poster printing to advertise them.
