Thursday, May 14, 2026 $55 Advance | $57 Day of Show Doors 7pm | Show 8pm The Narrows Center's 2,500th Show Amy Helm has quietly become one of the most treasured multi-generational live musicians and best kept secrets as a singer, songwriter, and performer. She's now touring her critically acclaimed album Silver City. The album draws inspiration from varied stories of womanhood in all of its complexities: a young fan struggling with substance abuse, a rural ancestor who was married off, a teen reeling from her first heartache, and Helm’s own life as a single mother and hard-touring singer. The songs blend the folk twang of Helm’s childhood with gospel and soul. Amy carries a storied “musician’s musician” reputation. The grammy-award winning producer and daughter of Levon Helm has an extensive musical pedigree. Amy embodies an authentic live musical tradition in her solo work and with the Helm Family Midnight Ramble, which carries on her father’s legacy.
