Indigo Girls share "Brilliant Dream" on fall theater run
Indigo Girls have plotted a fall course in support of their recently released double-disc live album, "Staring Down the Brilliant Dream," which surfaced earlier this summer.
The folk duo of Amy Ray and Emily Saliers will begin the U.S. journey with a Sept. 24 show in Sautee-Nacoochee, GA, followed by theater stops and festival appearances spread along the East and West coasts. The pair will perform for a total of 21 concerts, wrapping up Nov. 6 in Blackburg, VA, after which Ray will take to the stage for a handful of solo gigs along the eastern seaboard. The full schedule is outlined at right.
Tickets for most performances are on sale now via the Indigo Girls' website.
"Staring Down the Brilliant Dream," which the two Grammy-winning performers unveiled June 29, features 31 songs recorded during performances from 2006 through 2009. The live album marks the duo's first release since 2009's studio set, "Posiedon and the Bitter Bug," which peaked at No. 29 on the Billboard 200.
A handful of tracks for the live album are currently streaming at the pair's website.
