Gregory Alan Isakov with the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra

Gregory Alan Isakov knows how to write a tune full of space and longing, sprawling landscapes and intangible, quiet loss. And while slinging banjo-infused folk songs might seem like a humble enterprise, his success is anything but. Possessing one of the most evocative voices in the folk music world, Isakov has garnered over 1 billion streams. He’s no stranger to orchestral collaboration; he once made a record with the Colorado Symphony and in 2025 performed with the Los Angeles Philharmonic, a show the LA Times described as “a singular experience.” Now the Grammy-nominated folk star pairs his “relentlessly majestic” (Associated Press) songs from five studio albums with the full power of the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra.
