One of her notable accomplishments is the production of the tribute concert series, "Return to Sin City: A Tribute to Gram Parsons." This two-day, sold-out event featured stellar performances by artists such as Keith Richards (Rolling Stones), Norah Jones, Dwight Yoakam, Jay Farrar (Uncle Tupelo/Son Volt), Lucinda Williams and Jim James (My Morning Jacket).
