Bonnie Raitt

Why see Bonnie Raitt?

A Raitt Royal Return

This lady should really be known as the Comeback Kid; long time the critic's darling, she bounced back from near musical oblivion and substance abuse issues in the Eighties to become one of pop rock's biggest icons. And this year, she's back, hitting the road with her longtime touring band.

Having started her career during the 1970s, Raitt released a series of acclaimed roots-influenced albums which incorporated elements of blues, rock, folk and country, but she is perhaps best known for her more commercially accessible recordings in the 1990s including "Nick of Time", "Something to Talk About", "Love Sneakin' Up on You", and the slow ballad "I Can't Make You Love Me".

Following her comeback album 2005 Souls Alike, she took a hiatus following the death of her parents and best friend; not to be beaten, her 2012 album Slipstream saw it enter the Billboard 200 chart at number 6, with rave reviews.

Raitt has received nine Grammy Awards in her career and is a lifelong political activist, campaigning for environmental issues, providing musical instruments for underprivileged children, and against the expansion of nuclear power.

Bonnie Raitt is music and theatrical royalty

I love Ms. Raitt's music. She comes by it naturally. Her father was John Raitt who originated the male leading role of Billy Bigelow in "Carousel". He also did "Pajama Game" on Broadway and the movie version with Doris Day. I look forward to seeing Ms. Raitt and would not hesitate to recommend her show for entertainment for the whole family. ...

Great crowd rapport plus A+ band, don’t miss it

What a perfect show in Saskatoon, A+ show plus A+ musicians. Bonnie completely delivered on vocals, guitar and song choice however I have to admit I was really really impressed with her fellow guitar player who’d back into the weeds with some very tasty chords and chops and when needed stepped up with very creative and inspiring solos with a tone and style really had me thinking I should review the basics of my guitar playing. Don’t miss this tour! ... Read more
