From the venue:

Website: Twenty years after they began releasing records as the Indigo Girls, Amy Ray and Emily Saliers have politely declined the opportunity to slow down with age. With a legacy of releases and countless U.S. and international tours behind them, the Indigo Girls have forged their own way in the music business. Selling over 14 million records, they are still going strong. Amy & Emily are the only duo with top 40 titles on the Billboard 200 in the ’80s, ’90s, ’00s and ’10s.In 2012, Saliers and her Indigo Girls partner Amy Ray embarked on a bold new chapter, collaborating with a pair of orchestrators to prepare larger-than-life arrangements of their songs to perform with symphonies around the country. The duo found an elusive sonic sweet spot with the project, creating a seamless blend of folk, rock, pop, and classical that elevated their songs to new heights without scarifying any of the emotional intimacy and honesty that have defined their music for decades.

From CL Critic Hal Horowitz: Indigo Girls with The Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, Symphony Hall — It’s always a love fest when Atlanta’s favorite folk duo return, even more so when they play their hometown on New Year’s Eve. This isn’t the first time they have played with the ASO, but it’s still a special event. The orchestra lends additional gravitas to Amy and Emily’s songs. The duo is as powerful now as when they first started performing almost 35 years ago. Theirs is an impressive run — with no signs of slowing down.
