This tribute show to the Everly Brothers at the Troubadour (West Hollywood, Sat. Jan. 25) went on-sale this afternoon, and is now sold-out. There is no announced list of performers, but the usual suspects are rampant:
1. Americana Grammy nominees: EmmyLou Harris, Rodney Crowell, Jim Lauderdale, and Buddy Miller;
2. Grammy nominees in other categories: Jack White, Neil Young, etc.;
3. Local musicians who might live within 10 miles of the Troubadour: speculate as you wish…@paul_from_losangeles wrote:

Very entertaining 3-hour show, featuring many outstanding acts, each performing 2-3 songs, and then introducing the next act.
For me, the highlight was the Haden Triplets, performing “Single Girl, Married Girl” and “Will You Miss Me When I’m Gone?”, joined on guitars by Ry Cooder and T-Bone Burnett. The Haden Triplets new album, produced by Ry Cooder, debuts on Feb. 4 on Third Man Records, founded by Jack White. In the audience was actor Jack Black, husband of triplet Tanya Haden.
Rodney Crowell read an emotional letter from Don Everly, who was not present. The letter declared that Don was still in mourning for Phil, and thanked the audience and the Americana Music Association for the event.
Earlier, some fine bluegrass music from nominees Della Mae and James King.
Some brilliant music from multi-nominee Sarah Jarosz.
Sparkling performances from Rodney Crowell, Jim Lauderdale, Bonnie Raitt, and Joe Henry.Blake Mills, a favorite of this forum, played guitar with 3/5 of his Dawes band.

For those in Los Angeles, note the Haden Triplets are performing at the Bootleg Theater, on Friday evening, Feb. 28, currently a night of rest for Lucinda, between the dates at the Canyon Club & McCabe’s.
Here is a link to another forum with a picture, short video, and more details of the Haden Triplets album.

Maybe this is the right place to mention the re-release of Emmylou Harris’ “Wrecking Ball”. It’s terrific! The bonus-material offers a wonderful version of “Sweet Old World” (including a sweet Lu-Interruption). Buy it, enjoy it!
