KRIS KRISTOFFERSON

After this past summer's successful European tour, including a Glastonbury performance with an appearance from friends Johnny Depp & Bradley Cooper, ICM is pleased to announce that KRIS KRISTOFFERSON, will be returning to Europe in June and early July 2018.

Kris Kristofferson has spent three decades performing concerts all over the world, in most recent years in a solo acoustic setting, which puts the focus on the songs. "There's an honesty in the sparseness.  It feels like direct communication to the listener," he says.  "I still have more fun when I'm with the band, but being alone is freer, somehow.  It's like being an old blues guy, just completely stripped away." Heralded as an artist's artist, the three-time GRAMMY winner has recorded 29 albums, including three with pals Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash and Waylon Jennings as part of the Highwaymen. Kristofferson achieved remarkable success as a country songwriter at the start of the 1970s. His songs "Me and Bobby McGee," "Help Me Make It Through the Night," "Sunday Morning Coming Down," and "For the Good Times," all chart-topping hits, helped redefine country songwriting. In 1977 Kris won a Golden Globe for Best Actor in "A Star Is Born," and has appeared in over a dozen other movies.

A member of the Country Music Hall of Fame and having been honored with a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2014 (just a couple of his countless accolades), many would have hung their hat by now. Instead, Kristofferson barely has paused for breath. His current CD, The Cedar Creek Sessions, was released in time for Kristofferson's 80th birthday in 2016 and is a snapshot of the legendary songwriter in the twilight of his life.
