Folk-rock superstar JACKSON BROWNE, will be appearing at the 2010 Liverpool Summer Pops Festival this week, and Stereoboard.com has a pair of tickets to giveaway!
Performing at the Liverpool Echo Arena on Friday 2nd July 2010, Browne will be accompanied by his band, featuring long-time musical partner DAVID LINDLEY.
Jackson Browne began his musical career in the folk clubs of California during the mid-60s. A brief spell in New York, during the Coffeehouse scene of the late 60s, saw Browne make a name for himself in American folk-rock.
Browne is admired, equally, for his musical talents and as advocate for social and environmental justice. His insightful lyrics of political and personal angst can be heard in his popular songs, "Running On Empty", "Somebody's Baby", "The Pretender" and "These Days".
Well respected amongst his peers, Browne has written songs for the likes of Joan Baez, The Byrds and The Eagles. He, famously, co-wrote The Eagles' hit "Take It Easy" with founding member of the band, Glenn Frey. Browne had a 1972 hit with "Doctor My Eyes", a collaboration with David Crosby and Graham Nash, who feature in the Summer Pops 2010 calendar as CROSBY, STILLS & NASH.
David Lindley will feature as part of Browne's band in this Summer Pops show, Browne and Lindley will also perform an acoustic set as a duo. Lindley is considered a premier amongst session musicians, has been described as a 'maxi-instrumentalist', playing an extensive selection of string instruments. During two sets, the audience will be served a career spanning selection of Browne's music, from his 60s folk, to highlights from his 2008 album, "Time A Conqueror".
In 2004, Bruce Springsteen inducted Jackson Browne into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He was doubly honoured in 2007, with an induction into the Songwriter's Hall of Fame.
