Feb. 10, 2010, Wednesday, 7:30 p.m.
Kris Kristofferson’s story is fairly well-known – he had a dream, along with the necessary talent and ambition, to become a songwriter. It wasn’t long after arriving in Nashville in the early 1960s that he was receiving armloads of acclaim and being hailed as one of America’s clearest and most important voices, having penned such classics as “Me and Bobby McGee”, “Sunday Morning Coming Down”, “For the Good Times”, and many others. Now Kristofferson has reached living legend status, but that hasn’t changed or hindered his skills. His new music, like his classics, explores topics that resonate with us all – love, gratitude, aging, war, and his ever-present theme of freedom – with all the passion, depth and artistry that make Kris Kristofferson’s music distinctive, vivid, deeply emotional, beautiful…and unforgettable.
