INDIGO GIRLS
With Special Guest KATHLEEN EDWARDS
20 years after they began releasing records as Indigo Girls, Amy Ray and Emily Saliers have politely declined the opportunity to mellow with age. You could say it’s just not in their constitution: Devoted environmental and social-justice activists and lifelong music-industry mavericks, the Girls have spent their entire career pushing boundaries on a variety of fronts. Why stop now? Both Saliers and Ray agree that Despite Our Differences, the 10th Indigo Girls studio album, is a record defined by change and newness: On the business side of things, it’s the first CD they’ve released since signing a new record deal with Hollywood Records earlier this year. And on the creative side, it’s one they made far outside the confines of their established Georgia comfort zone; Differences was recorded over a speedy month-and-a-half this spring at veteran producer Mitchell Froom’s home studio in Santa Monica, California.
