Judy Collins—Winter Stories

Sunday, Aug. 30, at 6:30 p.m.

Recorded in Norway in February 2020, JUDY COLLINS — WINTER STORIES is a comfy collection of seasonal tales and emotionally evocative songs by an unlikely gathering of artists. The lineup boasts a triple threat of iconic folk singer-songwriter Judy Collins, critically acclaimed Norwegian folk artist Jonas Fjeld and masterful bluegrass band Chatham County Line. Their 2019 album was acclaimed as one of the best of the year, and their live performances have been hailed across America.

The television special captures the artists performing this seasonal selection of songs in front of a live audience. Standouts from the show include Judy’s evergreen “Mountain Girl,” and a stunning rendition of Joni Mitchell’s “The River.” The artists also showcase songs they’ve longed to record throughout the years, including Jimmy Webb’s “The Highwaymen,” which Judy has performed live with Stephen Stills, and Stan Rodger’s “North West Passage.” They also play Jonas’ newly-penned “Frozen North,” and the stunning title track which features the masterful vocal interlace of Judy and Jonas.
