About the Event<\/h3>\n

With hits like \u201cPassionate Kisses,\u201d \u201cI Feel Lucky,\u201d and \u201cHe Thinks He\u2019ll Keep Her,\u201d Mary Chapin Carpenter has won five Grammys\u00ae (with 18 nominations), two Country Music Association Awards, and two Academy of Country Music Awards. She is one of only 15 female members of the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame.\u202fOver the course of her acclaimed career, Carpenter has sold more than 16 million records.\u202fIn 2020,\u202fshe recorded two albums: <\/span>The Dirt And The Stars<\/span><\/i>, released in August 2020, and <\/span>One Night Lonely<\/span><\/i>, recorded live without an audience at the legendary Filene Center at Wolf Trap in Virginia during the COVID-19 shutdown and nominated for the 2022 Grammy\u00ae for Best Folk Album.<\/span><\/p>\n

The New York Times<\/span><\/i> describes her music as \u201can unclassifiable hybrid of pop, folk and country that she performs in the low, steady voice of someone confiding her thoughts in a journal,\u201d adding that her voice is \u201cmade to engage in hushed heart-to-heart all-night conversations about things that really matter.\u201d And <\/span>Salt Lake Magazine<\/span><\/i> describes her \u201cemotionally intelligent country music\u201d as \u201csometimes boisterous and fun and other times introspective and socially-conscious \u2026 a great blend of smart and sassy.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Of <\/span>The Dirt And The Stars<\/span><\/i>\u2014produced by\u202fEthan Johns\u202f(Ray LaMontagne, Paul McCartney, Kings of Leon) and recorded entirely live at Peter Gabriel\u2019s Real World Studios in Bath, England\u2014Carpenter quotes the writer Margaret Renkl. \u201c\u2018We are all in the process of becoming.\u2019 That doesn\u2019t stop at a certain age,\u201d Carpenter says. \u201cTo be always a student of art and music and life, as she says, that, to me, is what makes life worth living. The songs are very personal and they\u2019re difficult in some ways\u2014and definitely come from places of pain and self-illumination, but also places of joy, discovery, and the rewards of self- knowledge. They arrived from looking outward as much as inward, speaking to life changes, growing older, politics, compassion, #MeToo, heartbreak, empathy, the power of memory, time and place. There are many themes, but they all come back to that initial truth that we are all constantly \u2018becoming\u2019 through art and expression.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>","excerpt":"

About the Event<\/h3>\n

\u201cThey’re Grammy winners and\u2014more importantly\u2014party starters.\u201d \u2014 NPR<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Mavericks, the eclectic rock and country group known for crisscrossing musical boundaries with abandon, has gone through three distinct phases since it was founded in Miami in 1989: an initial period of heady success marked by big hits and critical acclaim in the 1990s, a\u00a0long hiatus starting 2003 when the musicians each went their own way, and, finally, a triumphant reunion in 2012, which held long enough for them to recently celebrate the band\u2019s 30th anniversary.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Now, The Mavericks have ushered in the fourth phase of their evolution with the #1 Billboard debut of their first all-Spanish album, <\/span>En Espa\u00f1ol<\/span><\/i>. Although all 12 tracks are in Spanish, as the title suggests, the collection represents a diversity of musical styles and cultural traditions, from tender boleros to brassy mariachi to reimagined Afro-Cuban classics, including five originals written or co-written by singer-guitarist Raul Malo. <\/span>En Espa\u00f1ol<\/span><\/i> flips the band\u2019s usual fusion formula, adding a striking assortment of genres\u2014salsa, ska, norte\u00f1o, mariachi, and much more\u2014to its sturdy country\/rock\/Tex-Mex base and streaking the solidly Latin foundation with irreverent rock and twangy guitars.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSince their emergence in the 1990s, they’ve remained one of the most critically acclaimed groups in roots music.\u201d \u2014 NPR<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cFrom the moment the band took the stage, frontman Raul Malo had the crowd dancing in the aisles, particularly with faves like \u2018What You Do to Me\u2019 and \u2018Easy As It Seems.\u2019\u201d \u2014 <\/span>MassLive<\/span><\/i>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMalo is one of contemporary music\u2019s finest and most gifted singers.\u201d \u2014<\/span> Creative Loafing Tampa Bay<\/span><\/i>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
