About this event
One of 50 upcoming events at Mount Baker Theatre, and 495 across Bellingham.
MBT Lookout Sessions Presents Karla Bonoff has been described as one of the finest singer/songwriters of her generation. That description is not hyperbole. Bonoff has earned critical acclaim, commercial success, enduring popularity, and the unwavering respect of her peers. Her songs have become hits for Bonnie Raitt, Wynonna Judd, and Linda Ronstadt. In 2019, Bonoff released her first new album in over a decade, Carry Me Home. The 16-song album features brand new recordings of her classics along with new songs by Bonoff, Kenny Edwards, and a cover of a vintage Jackson Browne tune, “Something Fine.” In late 2020, Bonoff released, Silent Night, her first collection of holiday music, to wide acclaim, including a prominent listing on the New York Times Best New Holiday Albums of the Year. The media continues to follow and shine a spotlight on Bonoff’s ongoing career milestones. She was featured in the acclaimed Linda Ronstadt documentary: The Sound of My Voice, highlighting her friendship with Ronstadt and as the writer of several of her biggest songs, including Grammy-winning hit, “All My Life.” Bob Lefsetz, a longtime fan, interviewed her for his popular podcast and dug deep into her history as a pioneer of the Southern California singer-songwriter scene. Trisha Yearwood’s new album includes a lovely rendition of Karla’s, “Home.” Mary Sue Toohey of The Village on Sirius/XM hosted a performance and interview, and Bonoff was invited to sing on the longest-running radio program for acoustic music, Acoustic Café. Bonoff has continued to record and tour extensively, playing sold-out shows around the world. Hearing her moving vocals on her rich, expressive songs is like standing beneath a sparkling waterfall: refreshing, exhilarating, and restorative. Fans and critics agree that Bonoff’s songs are timeless. September 23 | 10:00 AM – MBT Members Presale September 25 | 10:00 AM – General Public *Price includes MBT’s Historic Venue Operations fee.
