I'd like to get my two singers to come down here in front and sing this song with me -- Chavonne Stewart, Alethea Mills.
[ Cheers and applause ] This is a song that I wrote with a friend of mine named Eugene Rodriguez, who runs a cultural center in the Bay Area, in Richmond, California, for the children of immigrants.
The children whose parents came to this country from somewhere else but who, they themselves, were born here.
Eugene teaches them the traditions and the songs and the dances and the instruments of their parents' homeland.
[ Cheers and applause ] And this is a song that is...
It's really about -- It's inspired by the life of one of the teachers there who teaches dance, instruments.
Her name is Lucina, and she came to this country when she was 12.
And this is called "The Dreamer."

That was Val McCallum and Greg Leisz.
Would you please welcome my good friend Leslie Mendelson?
[ Cheers and applause ] We did this once before a couple years ago when we wrote the song.
It was for a movie that we were invited to write a song for.
We were each invited to write with the other, but we didn't know each other.
-He didn't know it.
[ Laughs ] I'm like, "Okay, I'll write with Jackson Browne."
[ Laughter ] "Sure."
-But... [ Laughter ] No, it was a really good choice, and so...
I mean, asked to write a duet and do a duet, I thought of all kinds of people that I knew that I would think, "Oh, maybe that's somebody I could write a song with," because I hadn't heard Leslie.
So it was just pure, beautiful blind luck that she turned out to be the writer that she is, and the singer.
[ Cheers and applause ] This is called "A Human Touch."

Jackson Browne Reschedules Tonight's Melbourne Show Due To Illness
© Provided by musicfeeds Jackson Browne Reschedules Tonight's Melbourne Show Due to Illness American singer-songwriter Jackson Browne was scheduled to perform a headline show at Melbourne's Margaret Court Arena tonight (Thursday, 13th April), but has been forced to postponed the concert due to illness.
The postponement was announced through a brief statement shared by promoters Frontier Touring, confirming that the gig has been rescheduled for this Sunday, 16th April. The show is still taking place at Margaret Court Arena, and tickets for tonight's performance will be valid for the rescheduled date. Those unable to attend the new date can obtain a refund via Ticketek.
Browne's Melbourne Show Has Been Rescheduled to Sunday, 16th AprilBrowne's now rescheduled performance is one of three Australian shows Browne will play this month in addition to his appearance at this year's edition of Byron Bay Bluesfest over the weekend. Browne played a show in Perth on Tuesday night as part of the A Day on the Green concert series, and will play a headline show at Sydney's Aware Super Theatre this Saturday, 15th April. Singer-songwriter Liz Stringer is on support duties for both this weekend's shows.
The tour marks Browne's first run of Australian dates since 2018, and first since releasing his 2021 album Downhill from Everywhere. Tickets for both the Sydney and rescheduled Melbourne date are on sale here.

Jackson Browne Recovers From Illness, Reschedules Australia Concerts
Jackson Browne has recovered from the illness that forced him to nix shows in Melbourne and Sydney.
The veteran U.S. Singer is healthy once again, according to a statement from Frontier Touring, and has continued his tour Down Under with shows this week in Auckland and Wellington, the New Zealand capital.
It was a difference story last week when Frontier Touring, which is producing his current trek, announced Browne's dates at Melbourne's Margaret Court Arena and Sydney's Aware Super Theatre would be postponed "due to illness."

"I'm sorry to have to tell you that I'm still very sick, and have to postpone my concert at the Aware Super Theatre in Sydney," he explained in a statement, issued last Saturday (April 15). "Though I have been taking antibiotics, and have had three days of vocal rest, that has not produced the results I was hoping for. In fact, I don't actually know what kind of infection I have."
He added, "I promise to get back here at the first opportunity, and play these two shows."
Browne kept that promise.
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Songwriter's Hall of Fame inductee has rescheduled the Melbourne show for Nov. 29, 2023 and the Sydney date for Dec. 1, 2023.
