Iris DeMent at Infinity Music Hall

Experience an unforgettable evening with acclaimed singer-songwriter Iris DeMent as she takes the stage at Infinity Music Hall in Hartford Norfolk on Saturday, August 16, 2025. Doors open at 7:00 PM, and the show begins at 8:00 PM.

Touring in support of her powerful new album Workin’ On A World, DeMent brings her signature blend of hymns, gospel, and old country music, paired with lyrics that address the urgent issues of our time — from climate change and social injustice to compassion and hope. With a voice described by John Prine as “like you’ve heard, but not really,” DeMent’s songs serve as both a balm and a call to action.

Throughout her storied career, she has been recognized as one of America’s finest songwriters, earning Grammy nominations, a place among Rolling Stone’s “greatest country albums of all time” for her debut Infamous Angel, and the Americana Music Trailblazer Award. Her music has also appeared in films such as True Grit and TV series like The Leftovers.

In Workin’ On A World, DeMent delivers 13 poignant tracks that honor past and present warriors of love, grapple with loss, and call for unity. Her heartfelt performance promises to be a moving journey, rich with stories, emotion, and the healing power of song.
