Gregory Alan Isakov: A Songwriter Built for the Open Air

Gregory Alan Isakov has spent nearly two decades carving out a singular space in American folk music. Born in Johannesburg, South Africa, and raised in Philadelphia before settling on a small farm outside Boulder, Colorado, his music carries the weight of wide-open landscapes and quiet, reflective nights. Albums like This Empty Northern Hemisphere, The Weatherman, and Evening Machines have earned him a passionate global audience that fills amphitheaters and concert halls with a kind of reverent attention rarely seen at live shows. His 2023 release Appaloosa Bones continued that tradition, blending intimate songwriting with lush production that translates beautifully to a live setting.

What sets Isakov apart from many of his contemporaries is the way his music breathes in a live environment. Songs like The Stable Song, San Luis, Big Black Car, and Liars build slowly and reward patience, drawing audiences into a shared emotional space that feels more like a meditation than a typical concert. His band -- often featuring strings, pedal steel, and atmospheric layers of guitar -- creates a sound that is both delicate and immersive. When paired with a full symphony orchestra, those arrangements reach an entirely new level of beauty and complexity.

This year, Isakov is playing some of the most iconic outdoor and indoor venues in the country. His summer schedule includes a pair of shows at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado, backed by the Colorado Symphony -- a pairing that has become one of the most anticipated annual events on the Front Range. He will also perform with the Chicago Philharmonic at Ravinia Festival in Highland Park, Illinois, and with the Vermont Symphony Orchestra at the Shelburne Museum. A special evening at Davies Symphony Hall in San Francisco with the San Francisco Symphony rounds out the orchestral collaborations.

Beyond the symphony dates, Isakov has a run of headline shows at stunning venues including Wolf Trap National Park for the Performing Arts in Vienna, Virginia, the Ogden Amphitheater in Utah, and the Cheyenne Civic Center in Wyoming. He also joins Brandi Carlile for a co-headlining evening at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville -- a pairing that promises to be one of the most talked-about shows of the season. Later in the fall, he appears alongside Zach Bryan at Jordan-Hare Stadium in Auburn, Alabama, introducing his music to an even broader audience.
