Led by Molly Otis & Ed Willett, the Blue Canvas Orchestra and special guest Corey Carlson take on the work of John Prine and Nanci Griffith in this Big Top original show.

John Prine and Nanci Griffith were both humble masters of the story. They dug deep into the places where we were afraid to go. Emotional depth, keen observations and wry humor brought their music to life and hit an emotional bone. These are the writers who gave us “Angel from Montgomery,” “Sam Stone,” “Love at the Five & Dime,” and many more. It’s the Blue Canvas Orchestra's great honor to present a tribute to our lost songsmiths. Both John and Nanci performed at the Big Top several times - amazing memories!
