The Indigo Girls will return to Davidson College for a concert at the new Davidson College Stadium. The only duo with top 40 titles on the Billboard 200 in each decade from the 1980s-2010s, Amy Ray and Emily Saliers are again on tour with the release of their latest record, Look Long, a stirring and eclectic collection of songs. Over a 35-year career, the multi-Grammy-winning duo has recorded 16 studio albums, sold over 15 million records, and built a dedicated, enduring following across the globe. In 1990, the Indigo Girls played a sold-out show in then-Love Auditorium (now the Richardson Wing of Chambers Building). The show featured hits like “Kid Fears” and “Closer to Fine,” which was featured in last year’s Barbie movie.
