“Bruised Orange at The Odeon, A Birthday Celebration Tribute To John Prine” is a concert featuring: Steven T. Winston, Colin Aberdeen, and Mark Tiffault of Los Blancos, with Joel Kane and Bruce Gerow. Special guests are Shirley Woodcock-Kolb, Tim Herron, Mike Powell, Chris Merkley, Jeff Jones, Charlie Orlando, and Michael DeLaney.
This talented line-up will honor the 71st birthday of the two time Grammy-winner, singer-songwriter, John Prine, who is among the English language’s premier phrase-turners.
Forty-five years into a remarkable career that has drawn effusive praise from Bob Dylan, Kris Kristofferson, Bonnie Raitt, Roger Waters, Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen, and others who would know, Prine is a smiling, shuffling force for good. He is a Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame member whose classic debut album, simply titled John Prine, is recognized as part of the Recording Academy’s Grammy Hall of Fame.
Prine’s songs have been recorded by Johnny Cash, Tom T. Hall, the Everly Brothers, Carly Simon, Bette Midler, Norah Jones, George Strait, Miranda Lambert, and many others. But his genius isn’t found in his resume, it’s found in the brilliance of lyrics from his large catalog of songs.
