ECLECTIC COUNTRY SUPERSTAR EMMYLOU HARRIS PERFORMS AT JOHN ASCUAGA'S NUGGET
Sparks/Reno, Nev. – Few musicians, country or otherwise, have created as profound an impact on contemporary music as Emmylou Harris. With a country-based catalog often described as heartfelt, visionary, and vital, she has become a true artist, one by whom all others measure their worth. See Emmylou Harris one night only, Sunday, May 25, in the Celebrity Showroom at John Ascuaga’s Nugget
Now in her fifth decade of performing, Harris’ stylistic variety, and multitude of successes, is staggering. From traditional country, contemporary country and country-rock to progressive country, alternative country and folk-rock, she has forged all-new pathways of achievement and collected piles of awards along the way. Settling into a style dubbed “cosmic American music” by one of her first musical mentors, Gram Parsons, Harris has earned 12 Grammy awards, along with scores of Nashville Music Awards, Country Music Association awards and is a Billboard Century Award recipient. Despite humble beginnings and struggles, she has reached a point in her career that other artists clamor to collaborate with her, including such notables as Dolly Parton, Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, Roy Orbison, Linda Ronstadt, and Willie Nelson.
In recognition of her remarkable career, Harris was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame on April 27. Her 25th album, All I Intended To Be, will be released in June. It’s a collection of originals and favorites.
