judy collins

judy collins at the aeolian hall is a masterclass in what happens when a voice carries decades of conviction. she's been writing and interpreting songs since before most venues in this city existed, and the aeolian - all intimate wood and history in old east village - is exactly the kind of room that lets you hear every choice she makes. whether you're there for the folk standards, the social conscience, or just the presence of someone who's actually lived the songs she sings, this is the kind of show that reminds you why people still gather in rooms like this to listen.
