Rosanne Cash and Joe Henry, June 20 in LA

On June 20, 2016 Rosanne Cash and Joe Henry will be in LA for an evening entitled 'Composed : The intersection of Poetry and Song.'

The event takes place at the central library and is organised by ALOUD in LA. (ALOUD is the Library Foundation of Los Angeles’ celebrated literary series of conversations, readings and performances at the downtown Central Library.)


An evening of  conversation and performance.

Like dreams, poetry and song enter our lives by way of a mystery—unrecognized and often uninvited. Both represent the speaking of the otherwise unspeakable: the place where real truth is unencumbered by fact, time is made elastic, and narrative emerges from the abstract to tell us something of who we are. Listen in for a special evening of music and conversation with two leading voices as songwriters and authors Rosanne Cash and Joe Henry (both multi-GRAMMY Award winners) reflect on the transcendence of language through poetry and song.

It's a free event, but they recommend you make a reservation.
