Joan Baez to Play in Cairns

America's legendary folk singer, songwriter and activist Joan Baez returns to Australia and will perform in Cairns for the first time.

A musical and political force of nature whose influence is incalculable.

Her music encompasses everything from folk rock to country and gospel music.  The powerful messages, sung in her passionate, sensitive voice remain as compelling today as when they were first heard.

Joan Baez is backed by her son Gabriel Harris on percussion and multi-instrumentalist Dirk Powell (banjo, guitar, keyboards and fiddle).

A rare opportunity to experience one of the world's great performers.

"Baez remains a true icon of the music world - with a performance that is powerful, tender and strident"  Telegraph UK
