Blind Boys of Alabama: Tribute to Songs in the Key of Life
The legendary Blind Boys of Alabama present a celebratory program built around Stevie Wonder’s *Songs in the Key of Life*. The performance combines Wonder’s classic songs with selections from the group’s own acclaimed repertoire, bringing together gospel, soul, and Americana in a joyful tribute to two enduring musical legacies.
With more than 75 years of performing, the Blind Boys continue their tradition of uplifting audiences through music. Their history with Stevie Wonder includes a Grammy-winning 2003 album featuring their celebrated version of “Higher Ground,” which later appeared in film and television, including FX’s *Fargo*. In 2007, Wonder honored Blind Boys singer Jimmy Carter with a Vision Award for Lifetime Achievement.
