Wolf Trap: Mary Chapin Carpenter and Emmylou Harris

While DC isn’t typically known for its Americana scene, two of the genre’s stalwarts got their start in the district. Beloved singer/songwriter Mary Chapin Carpenter considers herself a Hometown Girl, having called the Washington area home for nearly 30 years. Carpenter is joined by Emmylou Harris, “one of music’s most revered voices” (The Guardian). Harris has collaborated with everyone from Dolly Parton to Bright Eyes across her 50-year career but she cut her teeth in DC’s club scene.
