Here Comes the Sun (An all-star tribute to George Harrison)
He was nicknamed The Quiet Beatle and often overlooked in the massive shadow of Lennon & McCartney, but George Harrison’s songs speak for themselves (and then some). Here Comes The Sun, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, My Sweet Lord, Something, Handle With Care, All Things Must Pass, Taxman, Within You Without You, Isn’t It A Pity…his songbook is insane. Come celebrate Harrison’s iconic Beatles, solo, and Traveling Wilburys songs with an all-star house band comprised of members of Neon Trees, Desert Noises, Fictionist, and The Lower Lights backing up an absurd lineup of singers. Who? Meg & Brady Parks (The National Parks), Mindy Gledhill, Joey St. John (Cardinal Bloom), Nate Pyfer (Pinguin Mofex), Marie Bradshaw (The Hollering Pines), Libbie Linton (Mideau), Ryan Innes, the King will come, Peter Breinholt, Mason Porter (Polytype), Mick Rudolph (Seaslak), Marcus Bently, Debra Fotheringham, Jordan Moyes, Amy Gileadi (Sunfall Festival), Talin Everett, Dominic Moore. It all happens at Velour on February 27, just two days after what would’ve been (should’ve been) Harrison’s 83rd birthday.
