BELLOWS FALLS — Karla Bonoff and Livingston Taylor come "Home for the Holidays" with what Ray's the Roof Productions calls a "seasonally spiced concert" at the Bellows Falls Opera House on Saturday, Dec. 16. Ray's the Roof is partnering with Next Stage Arts, KOOL-FM, and Falcetti Pianos to bring this show to Bellows Falls.
"These are quintessential performers," said Ezra Veitch of Ray's the Roof Productions in a news release. "Both are superb songwriters, and both really know how to connect with audiences. We are at work on our 2024 schedule, but this is a spectacular way to finish the 2023 season."
Bonoff and Taylor have joined forces for "an unforgettable performance of song and joy," featuring seasonal classics, including songs from Bonoff's critically acclaimed holiday album, Silent Night, as well as some of their best-known songs.
In the late 1970s and 1980s, Bonoff wrote hits for Bonnie Raitt, Wynona Judd, Lynn Anderson, and Linda Ronstadt, including "Someone To Lay Down Beside Me." Taylor has written songs for and toured with his brother James and artists such as Linda Ronstadt and Carly Simon, and for the last 20 years, has taught a course on stage performance at Berklee College of Music in Boston.
The stage is home for Bonoff and Livingston, who have always maintained busy annual touring schedules. Now they say they are excited to be "back home in New England" with a performance that will be intimate, familiar, enthralling, and inspired by the essence of the season.
The Bellows Falls Opera House is located at 7 The Square. Doors at 6:30 p.m., showtime is 7:30 p.m. Adult beverages will be provided by PK's Irish Pub. Tickets are available online and at the door. For further information, call 802-387-0102 or visit BellowsFallsOperaHouse.com.
