Bluegrass: The Band, The Last Waltz 50th Anniversary
Bluegrass The Band presents “The Grass’d Waltz,” a bluegrass tribute commemorating the 50th anniversary of The Band’s celebrated 1976 farewell concert, *The Last Waltz*. The Boston-based group reunites for an evening that recasts music from the 1970s in a bluegrass style, joined by several of New England’s accomplished musicians.
