Lyle Lovett and his Large Band

The Argyros

A singer, composer, and actor, Lyle Lovett has broadened the definition of American music in a career that spans 14 albums. Coupled with his gift for storytelling, the Texas-based musician fuses elements of country, swing, jazz, folk, gospel, and blues in a convention-defying manner that breaks down barriers. Whether touring as a 'Duo' or with his 'Acoustic Group' or his 'Large Band,' Lovett's live performances show not only the breadth of this Texas legend's deep talents, but also the diversity of his influences, making him one of the most compelling and captivating musicians in popular music. Since his self-titled debut in 1986, Lyle Lovett has evolved into one of music's most vibrant and iconic performers. Among his many accolades, besides the four Grammy Awards, he was given the Americana Music Association's inaugural Trailblazer Award and was named Texas State Musician. His works, rich and eclectic, are some of the most beloved of any artist working today.

BODYTRAFFIC returns to the Argyros with an all new program including the Sun Valley premiere of I Forgot The Start by acclaimed choreographer Matthew Neenan. This inspired piece was created while in residency at The Argyros last summer. "Neenan dives into such complexities with utter sincerity, then adds touches of whimsy that cohere into a resonant work...I Forgot The Start songs by Sinéad O’Connor, Ozzie Kotani and Daniel Ho, and Sufjan Stevens that—like the dance itself—convey a sensory meditation on disconnection, connection, and perseverance." Melissa Strong, Broad Street Review Additional repertory includes The Act Of Becoming, an energetic homage to Maurice Ravel’s iconic Boléro by Fernando Hernando Magadan, and Bloquea’o by BODYTRAFFIC’s own Joan Rodriguez, with original music by Pedro Osuna that blends traditional Cuban rhythms and live percussion accompaniment by Ricky Matute.
