Big news down at Henry Miller Library: Pegi Young, spouse of rock legend Neil, gets out from her hubby’s enormous shadow and performs with her band (which includes pedal steel player Ben Keith, who has worked with Neil, the Band, Waylon Jennings, and many others) at the lovely Big Sur spot Friday, June 22, at 7:30 p.m.

A co-founder of the Bridge School and a force behind the annual Bridge benefit, Pegi has toured as a backing vocalist for Neil on many a tour, including the memorable “Greendale” outing. This time she’ll be focusing on her own music, which comes out tomorrow, June 12, on a self-titled Warner Bros. debut. SF songwriting savant Kelley Stoltz and folk warbler Marisa Nadler support the lady during her first public concert of songs from the CD, presented by Folk Yeah! Gates open at 7 p.m.; $37 tickets are available in advance only here. Carpooling is recommended.
