Graham Nash Presents and Evening of Songs and Stories at the Boch Center Wang Theatre October 3, 2024
With Special Guest Judy Collins
(Boston) Legendary artist Graham Nash is heading to Boston for a special night of song and stories. He will be joined by an all-star band and his longtime friend Judy Collins. Nash will take over the historic Boch Center Shubert Theatre October 3, 2024. The show is presented by the Folk Americana Roots Hall of Fame, Boston’s living music museum inside the Boch Center Wang Theatre.
Nash, as a founding member of both the Hollies and Crosby, Stills and Nash, is a two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee who has seen rock history unfold at some of its seminal moments – from the launch of the British Invasion (that’s him on-screen in 1967, eyewitness to the Beatles global broadcast performance of “All You Need Is Love” from Abbey Road studios) to the birth of the Laurel Canyon movement a year later. An extraordinary Grammy Award® winning renaissance artist – and self-described “simple man” – Nash was inducted twice into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, for his work with CSN and his work as a solo artist, beginning with two landmark albums, Songs For Beginners and Wild Tales.
Towering above virtually everything that Graham Nash has accomplished in his long and multi-faceted career, stands the litany of songs that he has written and introduced to the soundtrack of our lives for nearly six decades. Nash’s remarkable body of work began with his contributions to the Hollies opus from 1964 to ’68, including “Stop Stop Stop,” “On A Carousel,” “Carrie Anne,” “King Midas In Reverse,” and “Jennifer Eccles,” and continues all the way to Now (2023), his most recent solo album.
Graham will be joined on stage by Todd Caldwell (keyboards and vocals), Adam Minkoff (bass, drums, guitars, and vocals), and Zach Djanikian (guitars, mandolin, drums, and vocals), performing favorites from across his sixty-year career.
Graham’s set will be preceded by special guest and longtime friend, Judy Collins. Collins has inspired audiences for over six decades with sublime vocals, boldly vulnerable songwriting, personal life triumphs, and a firm commitment to social activism. She is esteemed for her imaginative interpretations of traditional and contemporary folk standards and her original compositions.
