Check out this playlist of some of Graham’s most popular songs with CSN, CSNY, The Hollies, and as a solo artist – many classics we can expect to hear!
Legendary artist Graham Nash, as a founding member of both the Hollies and Crosby, Stills and Nash, is a two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee. He has seen rock history unfold at some of its seminal moments – from the launch of the British Invasion to the birth of the Laurel Canyon movement a year later. An extraordinary Grammy Award® winning renaissance artist – and self-described “simple man” – Nash was inducted twice into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, for his work with CSN and his work as a solo artist.
Towering above virtually everything that Graham Nash has accomplished in his long and multi-faceted career, stands the litany of songs that he has written and introduced to the soundtrack of our lives for nearly six decades.
Nash’s remarkable body of work began with his contributions to the Hollies opus from 1964 to ’68, including “Stop Stop Stop,” and “On A Carousel,” among others.
The classic union of Crosby, Stills & Nash (& Young) yielded songs that are lightning rods embedded in our DNA, starting with Nash’s “Marrakesh Express,” “Pre-Road Downs” and “Lady of the Island,” from the first Crosby, Stills & Nash LP and his iconic “Teach Your Children” and “Our House” from CSNY’s Déjà Vu.
Nash’s career as a solo artist took flight in 1971, beginning with two landmark albums, Songs For Beginners and Wild Tales which further showcased the depths of his abilities as a singer and songwriter, yielding such favorites as “Chicago/We Can Change the World” and “Military Madness”. His latest effort, “Now”, was released worldwide in May 2023.
Graham will be joined on stage by Todd Caldwell (keyboards and vocals), Adam Minkoff (bass, drums, guitars, and vocals), and Zach Djanikian (guitars, mandolin, drums, and vocals), performing favorites from across his sixty-year career.
Graham’s set will be preceded by special guest and longtime friend, Judy Collins. Collins has inspired audiences for over six decades with sublime vocals, boldly vulnerable songwriting, personal life triumphs, and a firm commitment to social activism. She is esteemed for her imaginative interpretations of traditional and contemporary folk standards and her original compositions.
The only authorized ticket sellers for this performance are the Scottish Rite Auditorium Box Office, and etix.com. The tickets available on etix are a separate inventory from those available at the Box Office and have different fees. Box Office tickets can be purchased over the phone or in person.
