SUMMARY:Indigo Girls with Lucy Wainwright Roche
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:On their 16th studio album\, Indigo Girls tell their origin s
 tory.\nLook Long is a stirring and eclectic collection of songs that finds
 \nthe duo of Amy Ray and Emily Saliers reunited with their strongest\nback
 ing band to date as they chronicle their personal upbringings with\nmore s
 pecificity and focus than they have on any previous song-cycle.\n“We’r
 e fallible creatures shaped by the physics of life\,” says\nSaliers. “
 We’re shaped by our past\; what makes us who we are? And\nwhy?” Produc
 ed by John Reynolds (Sinéad O’Connor\, Damien Dempsey)\nand recorded in
  the countryside outside Bath\, England at Peter\nGabriel’s Real World S
 tudios\, these 11 songs have a tender\,\nrevealing motion to them\, as if 
 they’re feeding into a Super 8 film\nprojector\, illuminating a darkened
  living room. “When We Were\nWriters” recounts the flying sparks and p
 assion Saliers felt as a\nyoung college student when the duo first started
  performing together.\n“Shit Kickin’” is a nuanced love letter to Ra
 y’s Southern\nheritage. “I’m a little bit left of the ‘salt of the
  earth’ /\nThat’s alright\, I’ll prove my worth\,” she sings. As w
 riters\,\nSaliers and Ray tackle the mechanisms of perspective. Look Long\
 nconsiders the tremendous potential of ordinary life and suggests the\npos
 sibility that an honest survey of one’s past and present\,\nunburdened b
 y judgment\, can give shape to something new — the\npromise of a way for
 ward. With the energy of an expanding\, loyal\naudience beneath their feet
 \, a weather eye toward refinement\, and\nopenness to redefinition\, Indig
 o Girls exemplify that promise once\nagain. “We joke about being old\, b
 ut what is old when it comes to\nmusic? We’re still a bar band at heart\
 ,” says Saliers. “We are\nso inspired by younger artists and while our
  lyrics and writing\napproach may change\, our passion for music feels the
  same as it did\nwhen we were 25-years-old.” Released in 1989\, Indigo G
 irls'\neponymous major-label debut sold over 2 million units under the pow
 er\nof singles “Closer to Fine” and “Kid Fears” and turned Indigo\
 nGirls into one of the most successful folk duos in history. Over a\n35-ye
 ar career that began in clubs around their native Atlanta\,\nGeorgia\, the
  Grammy-winning duo has recorded 16 studio albums (seven\ngold\, four plat
 inum\, one double platinum)\, sold over 15 million\nrecords\, and built a 
 dedicated\, enduring following. Committed and\nuncompromising activists\, 
 Saliers and Ray work on issues like\nimmigration reform (El Refugio)\, LGB
 TQ rights\, education (Imagination\nLibrary)\, death penalty reform\, and 
 sustainability in Native\ncommunities. They are co-founders of Honor the E
 arth\, a non-profit\ndedicated to Indigenous environmental justice and gre
 en energy\nsolutions. They have granted over three million dollars to Nati
 ve-led\ngrassroots groups and campaigns fighting against bad energy projec
 ts\nbut also funding sustainable ones. Musical collaborations with a new\n
 generation of devoted peers like Brandi Carlile\, Justin Vernon (Bon\nIver
 )\, Sierra Hull\, and Matt Nathanson continue to bring newcomers to\nIndig
 o Girls’ audience. Says Vernon about growing up with Indigo\nGirls’ mu
 sic\, “I adored them more and more — the more they had\nstrength in th
 e face of their adversity ... They’re my favorite\ngroup ever.” Amidst
  our often-terrifying present\, Look Long is a\nmusical balm for those of 
 us in search of a daily refuge\, an hour or\ntwo when we can engage with s
 omething that brings us joy\, perspective\,\nor maybe just calm. “People
  feel lost in these political times\,”\nexplains Saliers. “Let’s lam
 ent our limitations\, but let’s also\nlook beyond what’s right in fron
 t of us\, take the long view of\nthings\, and strive to do better. As time
  has gone on\, our audience has\nbecome more expansive and diverse which g
 ives me a great sense of\njoy.” Jubilant crowd singalongs that often ove
 rpower the band itself\nare a trademark of Indigo Girls concerts. With the
  highly anticipated\nreturn of live music\, soon the night sky over amphit
 heaters all across\nthe country will fill once again with those collective
  voices raised\nin song. The phenomenon epitomizes the sense of belonging 
 and\ncelebration that Indigo Girls’ music radiates. As one bar band once
 \nput it\, “We go to the doctor\, we go to the mountains … we go to\nt
 he Bible\, we go through the workout.” For millions\, they go to\nIndigo
  Girls. On Look Long they’ll find a creative partnership\ncertain of its
  bearings\, forging a way forward. Venue: Freeman Arts\nPavilion. Presente
 r: Joshua M. Freeman Foundation.
