Legendary folk singer Judy Collins performs her SWEET JUDY BLUE EYES Farewell Tour with special guest Amy Speace at The 04 Center.
Judy Collins plays The 04 Center on Thursday, April 29, 2027, with Amy Speace opening. It's part of the SWEET JUDY BLUE EYES Farewell Tour, which she launched in 2026 and is running through 2027. Collins has built her name on folk standards and her own songwriting, and she's known for her social activism as much as her music.
Her body of work spans 55 albums. One of the most recognizable is her version of Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now," which made it into the Grammy Hall of Fame. She also recorded Stephen Sondheim's "Send in the Clowns," which won Song of the Year at the 1975 Grammy Awards. Over the years she's put out several top-ten hits and gold- and platinum-selling albums, and artists like Rufus Wainwright, Shawn Colvin, Dolly Parton, Joan Baez, and Leonard Cohen put together the tribute album Born to the Breed in her honor.
This farewell tour comes after a productive stretch: six albums since 2015, including Spellbound, which she wrote herself and that earned a Best Folk Album nomination at the 2023 Grammys. In 2025 she also put out a poetry collection, Sometimes It's Heaven: Poems of Love, Loss and Redemption.
