Join us on for a truly special night as legendary artist Emmylou Harris takes the stage in the newly renovated Amelia Ballroom at the Omni Amelia Island Resort & Spa. With her timeless voice and storytelling, Harris will be joined by two extraordinary friends: acclaimed Irish singer Maura O’Connell and Tammy Rogers King, co-founder of the Fernandina Beach Songwriters Festival. Together, they will create an unforgettable evening of song, harmony, and heart. The proceeds will benefit the Nassau Humane Society, making this concert not only a celebration of music, but also a gift to our community.
Free self-parking will be available for concertgoers in the hotel’s parking garage or the adjacent surface lot. Please allow extra time to park and be prepared for a short 3–5 minute walk to the ballroom. Handicap-accessible spaces are available, and guests may drop off members of their party near the entrance before parking.

A 14-time Grammy winner and Billboard Century Award recipient, Emmylou Harris’ contribution as a singer and songwriter spans 40 years. She has recorded more than 25 albums and has lent her talents to countless fellow artists’ recordings. In recognition of her remarkable career, Harris was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2008 and earned a Grammy Lifetime Achievement award in 2018.
Harris is known as much for her eloquently straightforward songwriting as for her incomparably expressive singing. Admired through her career for her talent as an artist and song connoisseur, Harris shook up country radio in the 1970s, and established herself as the premiere songwriter of a generation selling more than 15 million records and garnering 14 Grammy Awards, three CMA Awards, and four Americana Awards.
Harris is one of the most admired and influential women in music. She has recorded with such diverse artists as Linda Ronstadt, Daniel Lanois, Bob Dylan, Mark Knopfler, Neil Young, Gram Parsons, Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, Roy Orbison, Ryan Adams, Beck, Elvis Costello, Johnny Cash, Lucinda Williams, Lyle Lovett and Rodney Crowell. Few artists have achieved such honesty or have revealed such maturity in their writing. Forty years into her career, Harris continues to share the hard-earned wisdom that—hopefully if not inevitably—comes with getting older, though she’s never stopped looking ahead.
A longtime social activist, Harris has lent her voice to many causes. Most passionately to animal welfare. In 2004 she established Bonaparte’s Retreat with the goal of rescuing shelter dogs and adopting them into forever homes. To this day, Bonaparte’s Retreat continues to save dogs most in need at Metro Nashville Animal Care and Control and at municipal shelters in surrounding counties.
