Cultural treasure Judy Collins performs her 29th studio album Spellbound, alongside material from more than 50 years in music.

Judy Collins has always exhibited impeccable taste in songcraft. Her discerning palette and literary gifts have seen her evolve into a poetic, storyteller songwriter.

On her landmark 1967 album, Wildflowers, she curated a stunning collection featuring originals alongside songs by not-yet household names such as Joni Mitchell and Leonard Cohen, and adventurous selections by Jacques Brel and Francesco Landini. Now, in her sixth decade as a singer and songwriter, Judy is experiencing a profound level of growth and prolific creativity. Her latest album demonstrates an artistic renaissance. The first time she has written all of the songs on an album, it features twelve modern folk songs and a reworking of her much-loved ‘The Blizzard’.
