The Highwayman: Songs and Stories

Longtime New England musician/author Matt York will perform the songs of Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson and Waylon Jennings and tell stories of their careers. The four songwriting legends joined forces in the 1980's to form the country supergroup the Highwaymen. However, prior to that, they'd each established themselves as stars and their careers intersected many times since the 1960's. In both 2022 and 2023, York was nominated for the Boston Music Award for Best Country Artist and in 2019, The Boston Globe named Matt York's new album "Bruisable Heart" one of their top albums.
