Iconic Singer-Songwriter and LGBTQ/Environmental Activist Cris Williamson and Windham Hill Grammy-Nominated Recording Artist Barbara Higbie return to the Kuumbwa Jazz Center June 11 at 7:00pm
“Barb and I always have so much fun playing together. It makes for a very joyous, and deep occasion whenever we do a show. We’d love to have you there in Santa Cruz, a place that’s always been a favorite of ours. Join us, won’t you? It’s time for us all to be together!” – Cris
Iconic singer-songwriter, recording artist and activist Cris Williamson is credited with being the driving musical force behind the popularity of women’s music in the 70’s. Cris has released over 30 albums and was recently honored, along with Judy Dlugacz of Olivia Records, with the Americana Music Association’s Lifetime Achievement Award. Her most recent release Harbor Street is a powerful collection of songs penned and recorded during the pandemic.
“I look forward to this show SO much. Singing and playing with Cris is heaven for me. We tell stories and laugh and make everything feel right again, the way old friends can do. Sharing music in person again will be a huge gift to all of us!” – Barbara
Barbara Higbie is a Grammy nominated multi-instrumentalist/singer-songwriter, the first woman signed to Windham Hill Records and co-founder of the super group Montreux.

Her most recent release is a trilogy of original instrumental albums, Resonance, Mumuration, and Presence.
At the request of the artists, and in consideration of those who are immunocompromised, this is a masked show, except when one is eating or drinking. Covid is still among us, and Cris and Barbara ask that you take the precautions necessary to take good care of yourself and others.
