Two Legends

Playing in the Chicago folk scene of the early 70s, Prine was plucked from obscurity by Kris Kristofferson, an endorsement which helped to land him his first recording contract. Bob Dylan is also one of his biggest fans, terming Prine's work "pure Proustian existentialism". He's a singer who trades in life's little details, imbuing everyday existence with a kind of romantic grandeur.

Now in his 60s, Prine is still going strong. It may be a while since his last record but he always seems to be on the road. He tends to tour with a very sparse backing band, leaving his words front and centre, just as they should be. He'll be joined on these dates by Kristofferson, the man who discovered him all those years ago. A legendary singer songwriter (and actor), Kristofferson's best known tracks include For The Good Times and Me and Bobby McGee. Catch these two legends when they play in , ,
