It’s looking like no two shows and setlists are the same on this run of shows.

Songwriter Melissa Etheridge returns to Clearwater on Mother's Day

It hasn’t been an easy decade for Ms. “Bring Me Some Water.” In May of 2020, Melissa Etheridge's son Beckett died of an opioid overdose, and last January her friend David Crosby—who donated the sperm that resulted in Beckett’s birth—passed, too. ]

Personal tragedy—as well as a plethora of other adversities Etheridge has faced in life, such as kicking breast cancer’s ass, hasn’t prevented Etheridge from creating. It’s looking like no two shows and setlists are the same on this run of shows, so definitely do your homework.

Tickets to see Melissa Etheridge play Ruth Eckerd Hall in Clearwater on Sunday, May 14 are still available and start at $49.50.
