Jeff Slate & Friends: Bob Dylan 74th Birthday Bash

NEW YORK - May 7, 2015 - PRLog -- Deep cuts. Lost gems. Songs from the vaults.

Celebrate Bob Dylan’s 74th birthday at Hill Country Barbeque on Saturday, May 16th, with Jeff Slate & Friends.

Whether you’re a hardcore fan of Bob Dylan, a classic rock trivia buff or just discovering the greatest songwriter of the past 50 plus years, this show is for you.

In celebration of Dylan’s birthday, Jeff Slate and his all-star band will treat you to an evening of stellar rock ‘n’ roll, including the Dylan composition recorded by George Harrison that Dylan himself has never recorded or even played live, gems he rarely plays in concert and some of his best but least known songs, as well as original music inspired by Dylan.

Jeff and his band will be joined by some of the hottest names on the NYC and national music scene, so this is one that is not to be missed.

In 2012 Jeff debuted his solo album Birds of Paradox to sold out crowds around New York City. Since then he has toured, released Imposters & Attractions, a new album of original music inspired Elvis Costello, as well as an all-star version of The Kinks’ “Big Sky” on a tribute album to the late Kinks bass player Pete Quaife, and written extensively about some of music’s biggest names for Esquire, Guitar World and elsewhere. In February 2014 and March 2015 Jeff was a featured performer with his Birds of Paradox band at the Fest For Beatles Fans here in New York. In May 2014 he made his Hill Country Live! debut with his Dylan Obscura show, playing a set full of songs that Dylan himself has never recorded or even played live, gems he rarely plays in concert and some of his best but least known songs, as well as original music inspired by Dylan, to a packed house. He’s returned regularly with stellar, packed shows.

Jeff is currently hard at work on a new album, featuring performances by Earl Slick, Kenney Jones, Laurence Juber, Steve Holley, Carlos Alomar and many, many more!
