Margo Price, Burt Bacharach Added To Grammy Museum Digital Programming
The Los Angeles museum continues to offer a robust schedule of archival content, while its doors are closed amid the pandemic.
While the Grammy Museum has been closed since March, amid the coronavirus, it continues to keep music fans entertained with a packed schedule of digital programming. The newly-announced schedule for August includes previously-filmed interviews with such luminaries as Margo Price, Burt Bacharach, Toots & The Maytals, and Bright Eyes.
Each month, the Los Angeles museum has offered a variety of content from its archives, including interviews, performances, slideshows of past exhibitions, as well as educational content for children.
Beginning tomorrow, the museum will also kick-off a new series, Spotlight Saturdays, which features rising acts like LA-based rapper Duckwrth, singer-songwriter Conan Gray, and actress and R&B artist Kiana Ledé.
Since opening its doors 12 years ago, the museum has hosted over 900 public programs in its intimate 200-seat Clive Davis Theater. Now, every Monday and Wednesday, fans can enjoy these in-depth interviews from the comfort of home.
In addition to the above-mentioned acts, this month’s line-up also includes interviews with singer-songwriter Ruth B, Tex-Mex country band The Mavericks, rock group The Airborne Toxic Event, and singer-songwriter Pete Yorn, among many others. A full schedule is listed below.
On August 7, meanwhile, the museum will share a slideshow of its 2017 exhibit, Rhymes & Reasons: The Music of John Denver. The exhibit, which pays tribute to the life and career of the award-winning artist, actor, and activist, features a variety of ephemera, including many of Denver’s custom-designed stage costumes, handwritten lyrics, guitars, photos, and more.
