BETHEL WOODS FALL EVENT LINE-UP


BETHEL WOODS ADDS TO FALL EVENT GALLERY LINE-UP
Graham Nash, Los Lonely Boys, and Eileen Ivers 
 
June 5, 2017 (BETHEL, NY)   – Bethel Woods Center for the Arts continues to grow and diversify programming held in its most intimate venue – the indoor Event Gallery. This fall the Event Gallery will welcome Woodstock alumni Graham Nash on Sunday, September 24; Texican rockers Los Lonely Boys on Sunday, November 5; and world-renowned violinist Eileen Ivers on Friday, December 15 with “A Joyful Christmas.” Tickets for all three shows go on-sale Friday, June 9 at 10:00 AM at BethelWoodsCenter.org.

Graham Nash
Sunday, September 24 at 8:00 pm
Graham Nash is a two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee - with Crosby, Stills, and Nash and with the Hollies. He was also inducted twice into the Songwriter's Hall of Fame, as a solo artist and with CSN, and he is a GRAMMY Award winner. Towering above virtually everything that Graham Nash has accomplished in his first seventy-five years on this planet, stands the litany of songs that he has written and introduced to the soundtrack of the past half-century. His remarkable body of work, beginning with his contributions to the Hollies opus from 1964 to ’68, including “Stop Stop Stop,” “Pay You Back With Interest,” “On A Carousel,” “Carrie Anne,” “King Midas In Reverse,” and “Jennifer Eccles,” continues all the way to This Path Tonight (2016), his most recent solo album.

Los Lonely Boys
Sunday, November 5 at 8:00 pm
Lots of musicians compare their careers to roller-coaster rides, but Los Lonely Boys have had so many close-your-eyes-and-hang-on moments in the 14 years since they recorded their self-titled debut, they should buy an amusement park. The story of how the Garza brothers – vocalist/guitarist Henry, bassist/vocalist and drummer/ vocalist Ringo – rode their bluesy “Texican rock” sound from San Angelo, Texas, to worldwide fame is one of rock’s great Cinderella tales. Best known for their No. 1 single, “Heaven,” which wound up selling over 2 million copies, spending 76 weeks on the Billboard Top 200 album chart and earning them a Grammy for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group.

Eileen Ivers’ A Joyful Christmas
Friday, December 15 at 8:00 pm
Eileen Ivers and her band capture the spirit and magic of the season in her heartwarming Christmas holiday show. Nine-time All-Ireland Fiddle Champion and music star of Riverdance, Eileen Ivers will change the way you think about the violin. Hailed as one of the great innovators and pioneers in the Celtic and World Music genres, Ivers has established herself as the pre-eminent exponent of the Irish fiddle in the world today. The program of American and Irish songs, original tunes and holiday favorites, arranged with Eileen's unique style, are centered around the true meaning of Christmas.
