MADELEINE PEYROUX

Madeleine Peyroux’s ninth album, Let’s Walk, is a bold, heartfelt exploration of personal and social themes, blending jazz, folk, and chamber pop. In ten deeply personal tracks co-written with longtime collaborator Jon Herington, Peyroux navigates confessional, political, and whimsical tones, driven by her signature soulful voice. Inspired by civil rights marches and informed by events like the George Floyd trial, songs such as “Find True Love” and “Let’s Walk” capture hope and resilience. With production by Elliott Scheiner, the album moves through reflections on privilege, justice, and healing, from the playful “Me and the Mosquito” to the spoken-word closer, “Take Care.” Following pandemic-driven delays, Peyroux now brings Let’s Walk to live audiences, merging new work with her beloved renditions of timeless classics.

Louisiana born-and-raised singer-songwriter and guitarist Joy Clark is charting her own path with her debut album Tell it to the Wind. As the youngest of five children born into a tight knit, deeply religious family just outside of New Orleans, her release is both a declaration of her independence and a love letter to the traditions that shaped her. The album marks Clark’s arrival on the national stage as a proud, queer, Black woman blending the social consciousness of folk, the rhythms of Southeast Louisiana, and the soul-centered music she grew up with.

Tickets: $65.00 ~ $82.00

Countless television appearances followed, including David Letterman, Conan O’Brien, CBS Sunday Morning, Good Morning America, The Tonight Show, The View, and many popular international talk shows.
