AMP Concert Presents Bonnie "Prince" Billy with Laurel Premo

The man who sings and composes under the name Bonnie "Prince" Billy and acts under the name Will Oldham has, over the past three-plus decades, made an idiosyncratic journey through, and an indelible mark on, the worlds of indie rock and independent cinema. With his highly individualistic approach to music making and the music industry, one that cherishes intimacy, community, mystery, and spontaneity, his brilliance has captivated fans and made Bonnie one of our most influential and beloved songsmiths.

Bonnie "Prince" Billy's latest offerings include the 2019's I Made a Place, 2020's Superwolves  (with Matt Sweeney) and Blind Date Party, a collaborative album consisting of covers made with Bill Callahan during the pandemic lockdown. 2023 will see the release of his first children's book, based on the song "Shorty's Ark" (from Superwolves), as well as a new proper BPB record of new songs.

 Tickets cost $35 in advance, $40 day of show (plus a $4 service charge). They are also available by phone through Hold My Ticket at 505-886-1251.

About Laurel Premo

Laurel Premo is known for her rhythmically deep and rapt delivery of roots music, voiced on finger-style electric guitar, lap steel, and voice. The glowing heartiness and rich grit of her sound reveal a love of and complete submersion in heavy archaic roots—from the crossover of old-time and blues American traditions to darker Nordic sounds. She is a Michigan-based artist who has been writing, arranging, and touring since 2009 with vocal and instrumental roots acts, and is internationally known from her duo Red Tail Ring. Her 2021 solo release, Golden Loam, continued Laurel's weaving of old wild and soundscape, with ruminant power, a masterful use of space, and dynamic waves of warm, gritty sustain.
