LUCINDA WILLIAMS

Lucinda Williams is a phenomenal guitarist, bold songwriter and consistently fascinating performer. She’s earned kudos from artists as diverse as Mary Chapin Carpenter and Elvis Costello. A quarter-century after her eponymous breakthrough and 15 years after her seminal Car Wheels on a Gravel Road, Williams remains a vibrant and essential voice in roots music, a throwback to a time when country music was brave.
