Folk legend Joan Baez has sent a heartfelt thanks to Renée Fleming after she stepped down in her role as Artistic Advisor at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts after a convicted felon and rapist self-appointed himself as chairperson.

In 2015 when I spoke with Joan Baez, the warning signs were already brewing for a Trump take-over of America. When I asked her about the threat to American democracy becoming a reality she said this.

The movie ‘A Complete Unknown’ is about Bob Dylan’s early years. Many of those years were spent with folk legend Joan Baez, his girlfriend at the time. In 2015, Joan Baez spoke to Noise11 and talked about the time.

At first, the joining of folk icon Joan Baez with country singer-songwriter Mary Chapin Carpenter and the folk-rock duo the Indigo Girls seemed a bit odd but, the fact is, they have been friends for some time and the blending of the four voices is nothing short of amazing.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame held their annual induction ceremony on Friday night at the Barclay Center in Brooklyn, NY with an evening with a few surprises, just as many disappointments and a VERY long running time of four hours and fifty minutes.

The "Four Voices Tour" featuring Joan Baez, Mary Chapin Carpenter and the Indigo Girls is set for the US in June.

Joan Baez turned 75 last Saturday (January 9) and, on January 27, a long list of veteran artists will come together at the Beacon Theatre in New York to celebrate her milestone and career.
