Six-time Grammy winner St. Vincent returns to the Bowl, this time expanding her sonic palette with the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra. Known for her innovative guitar playing, sharp-edged songwriting, and uncompromising vision, the shapeshifting artist picked up three Grammys for her latest album, 2024’s All Born Screaming, with Pitchfork calling it “exalting, inspiring, and thoroughly romantic” and her “most hopeful record to date.” She’s released seven critically acclaimed albums, and now pairs her kaleidoscopic songs with the added heft and grandeur of the orchestra.

Anoushka Shankar marks the culmination of her recent trilogy of mini-albums: ‘Chapter I: Forever, For Now,’ ‘Chapter II: How Dark it Is Before Dawn’ and ‘Chapter III: We Return to Light’ with a visionary new live show. Written and released back-to-back during two years of an experimental, creatively-charged global tour of an ever-evolving programme, the performance of each Chapter infused the composition of the next. After first exploring the transient, bittersweet joy of a summer afternoon on Chapter I and an immersion into a healing, womblike night on Chapter II, Chapter III completes the cycle, leading audiences through each movement and into the strong, golden heat of morning—a time of strength, wisdom and change.

The urge to build bridges flows through sitar star Anoushka Shankar’s veins. The daughter of legendary sitar master Ravi Shankar, she was raised straddling east and west, moving between London, Delhi and California. She performs music from her career as captured on her latest album, the GRAMMY-nominated 2022 live recording Between Us.

A dedicated acolyte of her father who has immersed herself in classical Hindustani music, the nine-time GRAMMY nominee has forged an independent identity by collaborating with a vast array of artists from jazz icon Herbie Hancock and violinist Joshua Bell to the DJ duo Thievery Corporation, rock band Jethro Tull and Asian Underground pioneer Karsh Kale.
