“Joan Baez is still the mother of us all.” The New York Times

“Though many know her first for her gently trilling soprano voice, activism is as much a part of Baez’s identity as the sound.”

Legendary folk singer Joan Baez is a musical force of nature. She marched on the front line of the civil rights movement with Martin Luther King, Jr., inspired Václav Havel in his fight for a Czech Republic, then 40 years later saluted the Dixie Chicks for protesting the Iraq war. Her earliest recordings fed traditional ballads into the rock vernacular, before she introduced Bob Dylan to the world in 1963.
