Book Joan Baez
Joan Baez is a folk singer, songwriter and activist born in Staten Island, New York, whose pure soprano and commitment to civil rights and peace have made her a defining voice of the folk revival. She came to prominence at the Newport Folk Festival in 1959 and released her debut album in 1960. Her catalog spans twenty-seven albums, including Farewell, Angelina and Whistle Down the Wind, and signature songs include "Diamonds & Rust," "There but for Fortune" and her version of "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down." She sang at the 1963 March on Washington and at Woodstock, and wrote the memoir And a Voice to Sing With. She received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2007, entered the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2017 and received Amnesty International's Ambassador of Conscience Award. She wrapped up her Fare Thee Well tour in 2019 and has continued to make selective live appearances since.
