Grammy Award winner Melissa Etheridge comes to the Mayo Performing Arts Center on Monday, April 28 at 8 p.m. Tickets are $59 to $109.

The concert rotates between electric and acoustic guitar, piano and harmonica. Etheridge will be performing new and old material, including "Come To My Window," "I'm The Only One," "I Run For Life," and many more.

"I enjoy doing the solo shows not only to get ready for a new album, but I also love to dive into my catalogue of songs and bring a new freshness to my older material," explains Etheridge. "It is such an intimate experience with the audience, and it is truly one of my favorite ways to perform."

Most recently, Etheridge released a new anthem, "Uprising of Love", which is the inspiration for a new coalition by the same name, Uprising of Love, an organization in support of the safety and dignity of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) Russians. The track was also remixed by EDM heavy-hitters the Bent Collective (Danny Verde and Steven Redant) for a special club mix. Additionally, Etheridge is in the studio writing and recording music for her new album, slated for a fall/winter 2014 release.

The Mayo Performing Arts Center is located at 100 South St. in Morristown. For more information or tickets contact the box office at 973-539-8008 or mayoarts.org.
