Two-time Grammy award winner Rita Coolidge is bringing her incredible voice and talent to the Courthouse Center of the Arts on June 25 at 8 p.m. Her opener is American Roots singer/songwriter Grant Maloy Smith.

Rita has had a long career in music. As an A-list backup, Joe Cocker hired her for his Mad Dogs and Englishmen tour. Rita co-wrote the smash hit Carpenters song ?Superstar.” She has toured and recorded with Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan, Leon Russell and Stephen Stills.

In 1971 Herb Alpert signed her to A&M Records, and Rita released more than a dozen albums in the years that followed, including the multi-platinum “Anytime…Anywhere.” Rita released classic singles like ?We’re All Alone,? ?Higher And Higher? and ?The Way You Do The Things You Do.? She’s performed with friends like George Harrison, Roger Waters, Robbie Robertson and Jimmy Buffett. Rita has just published a Harper Collins autobiography called “Delta Lady,” which traces her roots from small town Tennessee to music legend.
