AN EVENING WITH DAVID CROSBY & GRAHAM NASH
THE TWO TOGETHER TOUR
TUESDAY, APRIL 12, 2011, 7:30 P.M.
AT BASS CONCERT HALL

TICKETS ON SALE FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 4 AT 10 AM!

Grammy Award-winning, Rock and Roll Hall of Famers David Crosby and Graham Nash bring their Two Together tour to Bass Concert Hall on Tuesday, April 12, offering a rare opportunity to savor an intimate, harmony-heavy experience with two of rock’s most legendary singer-songwriters. The last time David and Graham toured in tandem outside of the larger Crosby, Stills & Nash and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young configurations was early 2005 in Europe (their most recent outing in any grouping was 2006’s nationwide CSN&Y Freedom Of Speech tour). Tickets for this extraordinary evening go on sale Friday, February 4 at 10 a.m.

David Crosby and Graham Nash will perform a diverse range of memorable songs from throughout their careers, and spotlight selections from albums they’ve recorded together. The duo will be backed by an ace band featuring James Raymond (keyboards), Dean Parks (guitar), Kevin McCormick (bass), and Steve DiStanislao (drums).

Crosby & Nash’s most recent joint release was 2006’s Highlights, an essential single-disc distillation of their sprawling, highly acclaimed 2-CD set, ’04’s Crosby-Nash. Their first LP together, ’72’s Crosby & Nash, featuring the hits “Southbound Train” and “Immigration Man,” is regarded as one of the best side projects to emerge from the CSNY sphere. The duo also released 1975’s Wind On The Water and the live gem Another Stoney Evening. Most recently, in addition to Highlights, Graham and David’s famous harmonies graced David Gilmour’s ’06 hit “On An Island,” and they performed with the guitar virtuoso at his 3-night stand at London’s Albert Hall.

David Crosby and Graham Nash first harmonized in 1968, and have never stopped touring and recording together – or pursuing endeavors outside of CSN/CSN&Y. Crosby first rose to superstardom as a founding member of seminal folk-rock band The Byrds. Later, in addition to acclaimed solo work, David Crosby toured and recorded with CPR, the jazz-flavored trio he formed with his son, James Raymond. His classic songs include “Eight Miles High,” “Almost Cut My Hair,” “Déjà Vu,” “Guinnevere,” “Long Time Gone,” and “Wooden Ships.”

Graham first rose to fame with British Invasion stars The Hollies, whose Nash-penned classics include “On A Carousel,” “Bus Stop” and “Pay You Back With Interest;” his CSN/CSN&Y hits include “Teach Your Children,” “Our House” and “Marrakesh Express.” Among his four solo titles are the acclaimed ’71 debut LP Songs For Beginners and ’02’s Songs For Survivors, the first album by a major artist to come out in 5.1 before its stereo release.
