Singer-songwriter Amos Lee joins the Seattle Symphony for a one-night-only concert event on July 11, 2017 at 7:30 PM. Lee will perform songs from his latest studio album, Spirit (released August 2016), an ambitious self-produced album that marries modern rhythms with classic instrumentation and was inspired by his recent collaborations with orchestras and choirs. While his last two albums bore the stamp of strong producers (Joey Burns of Calexico and Jay Joyce of Little Big Town, Eric Church, Cage the Elephant), Lee finally felt ready to take over the helm with this latest record. Over the course of more than a dozen years and six studio albums, Amos Lee has continued to evolve, develop and challenge himself as a musician. With Spirit, he makes his biggest creative leap yet.
The Benaroya Hall Ticket Office is on the corner of Third Avenue and Union Street. Ticket Office hours are Monday through Friday, 10 a.m.-6 p.m.; and Saturday, 1 p.m.-6 p.m. Phone interviews and in-person appearances (when the touring schedule allows) are available by contacting Jennifer Rice.
