GOWANUS On Tuesday, a true legend graces the stage at the Bell House. Now in her seventies, Mavis Staples has had a long and illustrious musical career, beginning as a gospel singer at age eleven with her family’s group and later helping to soundtrack the civil rights movement; most recently, she released an album, produced by Jeff Tweedy, called You Are Not Alone. The Rock and Roll Hall of Famer and Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award-winning singer will be accompanied by opening performances from Texan singer-songwriter Jolie Holland and TV on the Radio’s Kyp Malone.
