This week on eTown, we’re featuring indie-folk-rock band Big Thief and legendary Americana singer-songwriter Lucinda Williams, live from Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison, Colorado. While the theatre of Red Rocks is dramatic in and of itself, this year’s show was electric as storms brewed overhead before, during and after. Paired with incredible music from Big Thief and Lucinda Williams, the set and setting combined for a night that was nothing short of magic.
