2014 SEASON PREVIEW • 5

PEACE, LOVE & MUSIC SOME OF THE CLASS OF 1969 RETURNS Around 2 p.m. on Saturday, August 15, 1969 an unknown 22 year old, Mexican-American musician and his band stepped onto a stage in an upstate New York alfalfa ﬁeld. By the time Santana left that stage and before their ﬁrst album ever hit stores, they’d made a half-million fans and launched a career that would continue to this day.

Just after midnight the ﬁrst notes of “Born on the Bayou” rang across the darkened, rain-soaked hills as the headliner took the stage before a weary crowd. Creedence Clearwater Revival was one of the biggest bands of the day, but thanks to technical difﬁculties and the Grateful Dead’s infamously long and confused set, John Fogerty had his work cut out for him. He refused to have the performance

included in the Woodstock ﬁlm because he felt it was subpar. But 45 years later, he’s back and there’s no doubt this legend will deliver an unforgettable night. Crosby, Stills & Nash was released in May of 1969, rocketing to the top of the charts. The band had performed live just once, so anticipation was high when they took the stage in the wee hours of Monday morning, joined by new band-mate Neil Young. No one imagined those moments would echo through the decades, or that 45 years later these legends would return to perform for some of those CARLOS SANTANA has sold more same ‘kids’ and thousands of new fans. than 100 million records and over 100 million fans have attended his concerts. He’s been honored with 10 Grammys®, the Billboard Century Award and a place in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He also has a new album, Corazon, tour, and HBO Latino/HBO Latin America special to go with it. It features top Latin artists including Chocquibtown, Gloria Estefan, Pitbull, Soledad, and more.

Mysteryland USA

The world’s longest-running electronic music festival makes its US debut on our hallowed grounds Memorial Day Weekend. Just as Woodstock represented the cultural and music shifts of a new generation, Mysteryland brings together the global forces of dance music, creativity, unity, and social responsibility of today’s youth. The three-day event will be a culturally immersive and engaging experience.

JOHN FOGERTY, who penned “Proud Mary,” “Fortunate Son,” “Born On The Bayou,” and “Who’ll Stop The Rain” says that when he tries to write a hit, it doesn’t work until he ﬁnds something in himself that resonates. Then the words and the music ﬂow. So, it is interesting that his latest effort is called, A Song for Everyone, which features collaborations with Brad Paisley, Bob Seeger, and My Morning Jacket. Yet, it is still personal. “I love making music. So the idea that I get to do this for a living still, instead of selling insurance, well, that means the world to me.”

DAVID CROSBY, STEPHEN STILLS and GRAHAM NASH are so ingrained in musical history that simply their initials will do. They’ve each been inducted into The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice, once as Crosby, Stills & Nash, and individually with The Byrds, Buffalo Springﬁeld, and The Hollies, respectively. They continue to collaborate and work on separate projects. Always provocative, Crosby sums up the years for the group, “I’m older than I’d like and I’m creaky, but I’m doing alright.” This year it all comes full circle. SANTANA returns on JUNE 15; CSN plays on JULY 5 and JOHN FOGERTY hits the stage on AUGUST 8. And a new generation brings a fresh festival experience to this hallowed ground with Mysteryland USA. Inspired by creativity and community, sustainability, and equality, it will carry the torch forward uniting the past, present, and future in a shared love of live music.

to have reached No. 1 on both their ﬁction and non-ﬁction lists. Jimmy has received two Grammy® nominations, numerous Country Music Association awards, and was the recipient of one of the nation’s highest songwriting honors when he was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame. Jimmy Buffett & the Coral Reefer Band dock at Bethel Woods on JULY 17.

Buffett’s current album, Songs from St. Somewhere is “…less about cocktails and hangovers and more about stories and song lines,” writes Time magazine. Nonetheless, Buffett the prolific songwriter that he is, told Time, “There’s 16 songs on this thing and I’m happy with it and proud of all the people who contributed to it.” Born in the Gulf Coast town of Pascagoula, Mississippi, Buffett was raised in Mobile, Alabama. He is a fourth-generation sailor and fisherman, a pilot, a surfer, and a frequent traveler to remote and exotic places of the world, having become addicted to National Geographic magazine as a child. The lyrics to many of his songs are influenced by his travels all over the globe. As a best-selling author, he is one of only nine in the history of the New York Times Best Seller List

JOSH GROBAN

With his sixth studio album, All That Echoes, JOSH GROBAN has built on the touchstone artistry that has made him a global pop star for more than a decade and expanded his ambitious reach into richly rewarding new territory. To no one’s surprise, the album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. The inspiring ﬁrst single “Brave,” one of seven songs on the album he co-wrote, shows off his accomplished, personal songwriting. From the Academy Award-winning “Falling Slowly” from the movie and Tony Award-honored spin-off Broadway musical Once, to Stevie Wonder’s “I Believe,” through his continued explorations of the poetry of Spanish (“Un Alma Mas,” featuring Cuban-born trumpet great Arturo Sandoval), and Italian (“E Ti Prometterò,” a duet with Italian star Laura Pausini), spotlight his singular talents as a masterful interpreter. “The album was really sparked by an energy I had on the road,” he says of his 2010 Illumination tour. It’s when his writing and ambition took full ﬂower.

It was certified multi-platinum and he’s never looked back. His next three releases Closer, 2003; Awake, 2006; and Noel, 2007 were all certified multi-platinum, and in 2007, he was charted as the number-one best selling artist in the United States with over 21 million records in the nation. To date, he has sold over 25 million records worldwide. Similar in spirit to Bethel Woods’ own mission, Groban launched the nonprofit organization Find Your Light Foundation in 2011, to “enrich the lives of young people through arts, education and cultural awareness.”

RIDE THE MECHANICAL BULL WITH

KINGS OF LEON Three-time Grammy Award winner, KINGS OF LEON are touring this summer in support of their sixth studio album, Mechanical Bull, which Rolling Stone describes as touching on “the group’s identities of the past decade: revved-up garage rockers, Southern-soul disciples, masters of arena bombast.”

When Kings of Leon released their third album Because Of The Times in April 2007, Entertainment Weekly called it their “crowning achievement,” while Rolling Stone wondered: “How good can the Kings of Leon get? They’ve already gone further than anybody could have guessed.” This Tennessee quartet of brothers Caleb, Nathan, and Jared Followill and their ﬁrst cousin Matthew, burst onto the alternative rock scene in 2000. The three Followill brothers grew up in Tennessee with their father, a Pentecostal minister, and their mother, Betty-Ann. Much of their young lives were spent on the road through the southern United States wherever dad, Ivan was preaching. When their parents divorced in 1997, Nathan and Caleb relocated to Nashville and embraced rock music and the

lifestyle they had previously been denied. There they met songwriter Angelo Petraglia who helped them hone their songwriting skills and introduced them to the musical inﬂuences of Thin Lizzy, The Rolling Stones, and The Clash. Youngest brother Jared and cousin Matthew moved to Nashville in 1999 to join them, and Kings was formed.

They gained fame in 2003 through their ﬁrst album Youth & Young Manhood, scoring a UK Top 40 hit with “Molly’s Chambers,” But it was 2004’s A-Ha Shake Heartbreak (which peaked at No. 25 on the Billboard 200) that landed the band a spot on U2’s 2005 North American tour in 2005. Since then, the Kings have been enjoying astonishing world-wide success. They sold out Radio City Music Hall and the Greek Theater in Hollywood. In Europe they recently sold out London’s 20,000seat 02 Arena in less than an hour. Said front man and lyricist Caleb: “There’s never a time that we’ll make a record and won’t attempt to do something better than what came before.” Kings of Leon play the Pavilion stage SATURDAY, AUGUST 16 with YOUNG THE GIANT and KONGOS.

SAY HELLO TO LIONEL RICHIE LIONEL RICHIE is the definition of an iconic entertainer recipient of five Grammy® Awards, an Oscar, 16 American Music Awards, a Golden Globe, five People’s Choice Awards, a World Music Lifetime Achievement Award... the list goes on and on. His discography is part of the fabric of American pop music. He has sold 100 million albums worldwide and is one of only two songwriters in history to have a No. 1 record for nine consecutive years. While in college, Richie joined the band, The Mystics—later renamed The Commodores—as their saxophone player. The band’s rise to international success began as the opening act for The Jackson Five. Their first single, “Machine Gun,” released in 1974, reached No. 7 on the US R&B charts. The group went on to have many more chart-topping singles including “Brick House,” “Just To Be Close To You,” and “Too Hot Ta Trot.”

As a songwriter, Richie was known for his ability to write without genre boundaries, a talent demonstrated in the success of mega hits such as, “Three Times A Lady,”“Stuck On You,” “Lady,” “Still,” and “Easy.” Richie released his eighth studio album Coming Home in September 2006. The album’s ﬁrst single, “I Call It Love” became his biggest hit in the U.S. in ten years, peaking at No. 6. In 2012, Richie reworked some of his biggest hits as duets with country music superstars like Shania Twain, Kenny Rogers, Willie Nelson, Tim McGraw, Blake Shelton, Jason Aldean, Darius Rucker, and Little Big Town. The album, entitled Tuskegee, reached No. 1 on the Billboard Top 200 list. Today, Lionel Richie continues to push his music forward while continuing to thrill his loyal fans. Say “Hello” on SATURDAY, AUGUST 2 on the Pavilion stage with CEELO GREEN.

In 1981, Richie began his solo career, becoming one of the most successful artists of the 1980s. He earned 13 top ten hits with nine No. 1 singles including “Endless Love,” “Truly,” “All Night Long,” “Hello,” and “Say You (Say Me).” His 1982 self-titled album started a run of platinum plus albums throughout the ’80s, with 1986’s “Dancing On The Ceiling” becoming a pop and R&B classic. He also co-wrote—with Michael Jackson—the Live-Aid classic, “We Are The World.”

At just 30 years old, MIRANDA LAMBERT, the Texas-born, platinum blonde is country music’s reigning female vocalist. Her third album Revolution was named album of the year by the Country Music Association and the Academy of Country Music, which also bestowed the same honor on her sophomore album Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. She received the top country female vocal performance honor at the most recent Grammy® Awards for “The House That Built Me.” She’s been named one of People’s Most Beautiful People and one of Maxim’s Hottest Women of Country. The feisty runner-up on Nashville Star in 2003 was signed by Sony Nashville who knew she had the moxie and know-how to write many of her own songs and be successful at it. Miranda’s major

Miranda’s ﬁfth album, Platinum, will be released this June. The title is more is more than just a song on the album. “Platinum is my hair color, my wedding ring, the color of my Airstream, and the name of one of my favorite beers,” says Lambert. “It’s about a lifestyle.” “Automatic,” the ﬁrst single from Platinum, got off to a historic start, debuting at No. 35 and No. 26 respectively on the Country Aircheck and Billboard country airplay charts. Miranda, who wrote half of the songs, describes the album like this: “All 16 songs together make up a picture, and without one of those songs, it just looks like abstract art,” she said. “I wanted it to be perfect; I wanted it to matter,” she continued. “There’s humor on this album, and nostalgia, and it’s feminine.”

JAMES TAYLOR

JAMES TAYLOR has been one of Bethel Woods’ most requested artists, and this year he is sure to delight audiences on JULY 20. His music embodies the art of songwriting in its most personal and universal form. For more than 40 years, Taylor has been a compass for his fans, articulating moments of pain and joy, and letting his listeners know that they are not alone. “What I’ve always done as an entertainer is try to come up with things that people will ﬁnd interesting, or compelling, or humorous.”

In a career marked by artistic triumphs, the past few years have been notable for both creative virtuosity and recognition of his exceptional achievement. Taylor was inducted into both the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the prestigious Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2000, was selected as the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences’ MusiCares Person of the Year in 2006, and was nominated for an Emmy Award in the category of Outstanding Variety, Music, or Comedy Special for One Man Band in 2007.

While taking a tour hiatus in 2013 to work on his newest album, he added a private concert for the victim families of Newtown, CT, a memorial service for MIT Officer Sean Collier, and an appearance at The One Fund benefit concert in Boston. He was also a featured performer at President Barack Obama’s inauguration ceremony in January. He has sold over 100 million albums since signing to the Beatles’ Apple Records in 1968. Over the decades, his songs have had a profound influence on songwriters and music lovers: “Fire and Rain,” “Country Road,” “Something in the Way She Moves,” “Mexico,” “Shower the People,” “Your Smiling Face,” “Carolina In My Mind,” and “Sweet Baby James,” to name a few. He has earned 40 gold, platinum, and multi-platinum awards and five Grammy® Awards.

In 2012, Taylor was awarded the distinguished Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters by the French government and in 2011, was awarded the National Medal of Arts by President Barack Obama. Both medals are their nation’s highest honors for artistic excellence recognizing “outstanding achievements and support of the arts.”

While Keith’s success is evident, the country music superstar’s dedication to giving back is his most impressive accomplishment. He’s an active supporter of the armed forces, performing and visiting troops worldwide with the USO.
