Joan Osborne Concert
American singer, songwriter and music interpreter Joan Osborne will perform at the Ponte Vedra Concert Hall April 2, 2022.
The Ponte Vedra Concert Hall presents Joan Osborne on Thursday, April 7, 2022.
On her 10th studio album, the masterful Trouble and Strife, Joan Osborne has issued a clarion call. With stunning vocals and incisive lyrics, this deeply engaging collection of new original songs is her response to "the crazy, chaotic times we're living in," she says, and "a recognition of the important role music has to play in this moment. Music has a unique ability to re-energize people and allow us to continue to hang on to that sense of joy of being alive."
Since breaking through 25 years ago with the multi-platinum Relish and its touchstone mega-smash One of Us, the seven-time Grammy nominee has never played it safe. Osborne has followed her restless musical heart, exploring a diverse range of genres: pop rock, soul, R&B, blues, roots rock, gospel, funk and country.
Tackling serious subject matter in her writing while crafting music to "uplift," Osborne assembled "a great live band" (including several musicians who played on her acclaimed last album, Songs of Bob Dylan): guitarists Jack Petruzzelli, Nels Cline and Andrew Carillo, keyboardist Keith Cotton, bassist Richard Hammond and drummer Aaron Comess. For vocal harmonies, she enlisted exquisite vocalists Catherine Russell, Ada Dyer, Martha Redbone and Audrey Martells, whom she's "had the great privilege to work with over many years."
