Forty years ago in Los Angeles, a collective of young, radical lesbians released a record album that became the soundtrack of a movement. Cris Williamson's The Changer and The Changed essentially launched the genre known as Women's Music. Bonnie Raitt described Cris's voice as "like honey on a cello" and The Boston Globe has praised her as "a brilliant composer and lyricist." Her tasteful covers and moving originals, as well as her politics and gift for inspiring, have made her an enduring force in the American music scene.
As an advocate for Native Americans she performed with Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt, Joan Baez, Floyd Westerman, and John Trudell on the Water for Life Tour. As an advocate for preserving the world's rain forests she has played with Danny O'Keefe and Keb Mo. And as a constant and fierce supporter of women's rights she's taken the stage with Gloria Steinem, Billie Jean King, Holly Near and Kate Clinton, to name a few.
Along with her never-ending flow of new material, Cris is dedicating this 40th Anniversary year to dusting off some of her ageless gems and sprinkling them into her solo sets.
