Stroll down to the Lincoln Theatre in Mount Vernon next Thursday, Dec. 22 at 7:30 p.m. to attend a holiday live music concert from world renowned musicians Karla Bonoff and Livingston Taylor.

Their performance, titled "Home for the Holidays," will feature Christmas classics, songs from Bonoff's latest compilation album "Silent Night" and both musicians' greatest hits.

Bonoff grew up in Los Angeles, California playing various instruments. At 15-years-old she was already a songwriter looking to pursue a career in music. Bonoff said she fell into this path because of her interest in playing guitar and growing up in an entertainment-centered city like LA.

"It was the right place and right time," she said.

Bonoff is known for writing hit songs for famed artists, including "Tell Me Why," covered by Wynonna Judd; "Isn't It Always Love," covered by Lynn Anderson and more. Bonoff also wrote music for movie soundtracks, including 1984's "Footloose" and "About Last Night," released in 1986.


During the COVID-19 pandemic, Bonoff recorded her holiday album "Silent Night." She knew it would be "fun to go out and play songs from the album" when the world opened back up. After its release in November 2021, she hit the road.

Having a long and sustainable career touring for over 40 years, Bonoff has performed at many historical venues. She revealed her most memorable venue was playing at the Colonial Theatre in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, in the Berkshires. It was built in 1903.
