Let's Stay Together, LA: Al Green

Over the decades, Al Green’s impact in music is undeniable. With Eleven Grammy ® Awards, a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction in 1995, a “Lifetime Achievement Award” at both the 2002 GRAMMY AWARDS® and the 2009 BET Awards and most recently being celebrated in Washington D.C. at the Kennedy Center Honors in 2014, Al Green continues to be a commanding presence in music. In 2023, Green put his signature touch on Lou Reed’s “Perfect Day,” which The New York Times described as “a sumptuous reimagining of Lou Reed’s 1972 classic,” followed by a soul-stirring cover of R.E.M.’s “Everybody Hurts” in 2024 with Stereogum stating, “he gives the song new emotional shades and textures.” These critically acclaimed releases prove that his voice—full of warmth, grit, and grace—is as powerful as ever. Decades later, Al Green isn’t just still here. He’s still moving us.

With a highly successful recording and touring career that spans over five decades, Al Green’s musical roots originate in Memphis, but he has made an undeniable and lasting impact on music and musicians around the world from R&B, Soul, and Pop to Blues and Gospel. He is considered one of Rolling Stone’s 100 Greatest Artists of All Time, with Pitchfork proclaiming Al Green as “The Greatest Living Soul Singer,” Al Green is a national treasure and once again hits the road to spread his message of love.
