Throughout her three-decade, multi-Grammy nominated career, Joan Osborne has never been an artist confined to one space. She has shared the stage with artists ranging from Stevie Wonder and Mavis Staples to Bob Dylan and Lucinda Williams, and she continues to seamlessly blend into any genre. Osborne’s incredible voice always shines through her own songs, while she has also become one of her generation’s finest interpreters. Dylanology Live is yet another testament to her artistic range.
