So great to get to hang with @nancywilson at her lovely home, where we were interviewed for a film about @thestevecropper, one of the greatest guitarists, songwriters and producers of all time. I feel so lucky to call him a friend. Can’t wait to see the film when it’s finished! — Bonnie
With great sadness, we mark the passing of one of the most important people in our activist musicians community, Tom Campbell. For over 50 years, Tom and his wonderful team at Avocado Productions and The Guacamole Fund have organized and produced over 1200 benefit concerts, rallies and receptions for a wide range of wonderful issues from No Nukes, to environmental protection and justice, women’s, human and Native American rights and peace. There is no one who has done more to raise funds and awareness than Tom. I’ve included a link to his obit here so you can appreciate in detail his amazing life and contributions. He was a dear friend and I’ll miss and be grateful for him always. Our sincere condolences go out to his wife Smoky, son Grady and all the family. — Bonnie Read more about Tom’s legacy at the link in bio.

@bonnieraittofficial grew up surrounded by music — and she turned her hobby into a brilliant career, winning 13 Grammys, being inducted into @rockhall and now, becoming a @kennedycenter honoree. She told @gayleking about her lifelong connection to music: “I just want to be as much able to make as big of a difference in the world as I can.”
Thanks so much to @jameshuntersix and his terrific band for bringing so much rockin’ soul to our shows on our incredibly successful spring tour. Thanks so much to my band and crew and all our fans as well. We look forward to more wonderful gigs together this fall. – Bonnie Band James Hunter photo by Ed Trembicki-Guy (@njpac)

Last month, @reverb_org’s Co-Executive Directors and Founders Lauren Sullivan and Adam Gardner of @guster, reconnected with Bonnie at her concert in Portland, ME. In 2004, Adam and Lauren — concerned about the environmental impact of music tours — decided to make a change for the better. Having heard about Bonnie’s @greenhighwayofficial campaign, they called Bonnie’s manager to find out more. Bonnie and her manager took Adam and Lauren on as a project of their ARIA Foundation mentoring their start-up until REVERB was able to launch as their own 501c3 organization. We are so proud of the incredible impact REVERB has made on the touring industry over the past 20 years, working with a range of musicians, festivals and venues to engage fans to take environmental and social action. To learn more about their work, visit https://reverb.org — BRHQ

Episode 2: She’s Like Cézanne We travel to Los Angeles for the first half of Episode 2, where @sheroesradio host @carmelholt talks to legendary producer, bassist, and @bluenoterecords president, @donwas about his first gig ever at age 12 opening for Joni Mitchell. Don also shares how he learned an important life lesson from listening to Blue, and discusses the sophistication of Joni’s harmonic and poetic compositions, and how this naturally intersected with some of the greats of jazz, including their mutual friend, the late Wayne Shorter. Next, in a heartfelt conversation, Carmel tells @bonnieraittofficial that her own road to Joni began with cassettes of Blue and Bonnie’s 1974 album Streetlights, and we learn that her version of “That Song About The Midway” also holds a very special meaning for Bonnie, including performing the song in Joni’s living room at one of the Joni Jams. Bonnie shares how inspirational and important Joni has been for her, and the ways she has impacted her work. EP2 is streaming now where ever you listen to your fave podcasts (distributed by @talkhouse ) and on our 23 affiliate public radio stations beginning tomorrow, Saturday, September 14. Links in bio!
