Crystal Gayle packs her passport and a set list this week for a 15-hour flight that leads to Seoul, South Korea, where she's part of a massive two-day Flower Power Peace Festival.
Crystal is the lone country star on the bill, which brings together a number of pop and rock acts Sunday and Monday. The festival will feature Linda Ronstadt, Rod Stewart, Janis Ian, Don McLean, the Alan Parsons Project, the Kingston Trio, Donovan, Judy Collins, Melanie, Dr. Hook and Blood, Sweat & Tears during a year that marks the 60th anniversary of South Korea's birth.
"I have always been a flower child at heart," Crystal says. "The lineup is amazing. Being asked to join these amazing entertainers, of which I myself am a personal fan of, is awesome."
It marks Crystal's first performance in South Korea and is reportedly the first time any of the acts on the bill #151; except for Melanie — have played there.
