Known for her crystalline voice and extraordinary gifts as a singer-songwriter, Harris will return to Dominican to perform in the President’s Signature Concert. Her latest album, All I Intended To Be, tracks a career that spans over 30 years.
The album, recorded between tours with Neil Young, Elvis Costello and Mark Knopfler, is her first solo album since 2003 and features Dolly Parton, Vince Gill, and the McGarrigle sisters among others. Calling herself a “ gatherer of songs,” Harris has been able to discover and give new life to many beautiful but overlooked country, bluegrass or folk tunes.
