Songs of a Generation is a celebration of song, featuring two of the most influential songwriters of the 60's through the 90's. Janis Ian's hit songs include "Society's Child", "At Seventeen", "Jessie" and many more from her 29 albums and cds. Karla Bonoff has written
numerous million selling songs including "Someone To Lay Down Beside Me", "Home", "All My Life", "Personally" and "Tell Me Why." These two iconic stars will take you on a musical journey starting in 1966 when Ian's "Society's Child" became a lightning rod for racial
equality in the most storied and turbulent time in our musical history. Coupled with Janis Ian's new autobiography released and both artist's new retrospective CDs, this will be the concert to remember from two unforgettable artists.

  • Janis Ian published her first song at 13, started recording at 14, and had her first hit at 15. In the decades following, she earned nine Grammy nominations and over 20 million record sales worldwide. Janis is now reaching a third generation of fans as an acclaimed author with “Society’s Child: My Autobiography” and accompanying double CD-set on Sony Music, The Essential Janis Ian, her first career compilation in 29 releases. It includes “At Seventeen”, a song that earned five Grammy nominations in 1975 (the most any solo female artist had ever garnered).
  • Karla Bonoff is often described as one of the finest singer/songwriters of her generation. With a career spanning four decades, Bonoff has enjoyed critical acclaim, commercial success, enduring popularity and the unwavering respect of her peers. In addition to achieving chart success with her own recordings, Karla has seen her songs become hits for such stellar artists as Bonnie Raitt, Wynonna Judd and Linda Ronstadt. Many of Bonoff’s ballads are now pop classics. Karla’s moving vocals on her rich, expressive songs is like standing beneath a sparkling waterfall--refreshing, exhilarating, restorative. And hearing them live can be transformative.

"Devoted fans traveled great distances to hear Karla Bonoff. Her play list is a heartfelt litany of one hit after another. The audience fell in love with her music all over again." _Lebanon Opera House
