The Warner Theatre will welcome two-time Grammy award winner, John Prine on Saturday, September 17 at 8 pm.

John Prine is a singer-songwriter who, from his eponymously titled first LP release in 1971, has continued to write and perform songs that have become central to our American musical heritage. Classics like, 'Angel from Montgomery,' 'Sam Stone,' 'Paradise,' and 'Hello in There,' speak to the everyday experience of ordinary people with a simple honesty, and an extraordinary ability to get right through to the heart of the listener.

Long considered a "songwriter's songwriter," John Prine is a rare talent whose writing is greatly admired by his peers. Performers who have recorded from his extensive catalog include Johnny Cash, Bonnie Raitt, the Everly Brothers, John Denver, Kris Kristofferson, Carly Simon, Ben Harper, Joan Baez, George Strait, Old Crow Medicine Show, Norah Jones, Bette Midler, Miranda Lambert and many others. Prine has become for many, not just a well-loved and appreciated songwriter, but a bonafide American treasure.
