With 'Dig In Deep', her twentieth album, Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Bonnie Raitt comes out swinging. The follow-up to 2012's triumphant 'Slipstream', the new record illustrates the delicate balance of consistency and risk-taking that has defined Raitt's remarkable career for more than forty-five years.
"My fans stay loyal and stand up and cheer and love 'Angel from Montgomery,' but I feel like we built a whole new audience with the younger Americana generation," she says. "It's very gratifying to know that there's some traction there—that it wasn't just a couple of songs on the radio around 'Nick of Time' or 'Something to Talk About' or 'I Can't Make You Love Me.' What's going on with music now, in terms of roots music, is the harvest of what we did in the '60s and '70s. It's thrilling to be around at this time. I feel part of a continuum."
Bonnie has participated as a special guest on over 185 outside projects over the years, including work with friends, on soundtracks, and for special benefit albums. Among the highlights are duets with John Lee Hooker, B.B. King, John Raitt, Aretha Franklin, Willie Nelson, Tony Bennett, and Ray Charles.
Continuing a long-standing tradition in conjunction with The Guacamole Fund, one dollar from every ticket purchased will be donated to grassroots local, regional, and national organizations whose work focuses on safe and sustainable energy, social justice and human rights, environmental protection, and blues/music education.
