For whiskey connoisseurs and
those that are in the know on the music scene, the Jameson
Dylan Best Fest
will be a “who’s who” in the entertainment industry event this November 11-12th
at Bowery Ballroom in New York City. The New York Times described The Best
Fest as “one the most jubilant events of the year,” and Rolling Stone touted it as “an experience that is equal parts
concert and celebration.”
The Dylan Fest was the
birthplace of The Best Fests that now spans across San Francisco, New York,
Austin, and Los Angeles, and also includes the Petty Fest and Stones Fest. Since
it began, The Best Fest concert series has become a New York tradition and with
100% of sales proceeds going to Sweet Relief, a charity dedicated to healing
musicians in need, it has raised more than $100,000 for the cause.
The evening will celebrate the
music of Bob Dylan featuring Patrick Carney of The Black Keys, Doyle Bramhall II, Jason Isbell, Dhani Harrison,
Erika Wennerstrom of Heartless Bastards,
Elvis Perkins, Ruby Amanfu, Craig Finn & Tad Kubler of The Hold Steady (Nov 12 Only), Jesse Malin, Grouplove (Nov 12
