Indigo Girls at Thompson’s Point

The acclaimed folk rock duo, Indigo Girls, featuring Amy Ray and Emily Saliers, is set to headline Thompson’s Point in Portland on August 25, 2026. This outdoor concert will be a significant event as it's the first time the Grammy-winning artists have headlined at this specific venue, drawing an anticipated crowd of thousands to sing along to their well-known songs like "Galileo" and "Least Complicated."

Known for their distinctive harmonies, songwriting, and musicianship, the Indigo Girls are also recognized for their activism, advocating for racial, social justice, and environmental causes. Emily Saliers recently revealed her diagnosis of cervical dystonia and an essential tremor, which affect her singing voice. As a result, current performances include adjusted arrangements and additional support from backing vocalists to ensure the best possible show for their fans.

Despite these challenges, the duo remains committed to their craft, emphasizing their central message of love, self-esteem, and activism. They aim to continue performing their best, maintaining their reputation for transparency with their fanbase. The Indigo Girls have a history of playing in Maine, having performed numerous times across the state.
