*About Music from Big Pink - In 1967 The Band honed in on their sound throughout multiple recording sessions with Bob Dylan in West Saugerties, New York. The house they composed in was known by locals as “Big Pink” due to its pink siding. It was at this house, which was shared by members Rick Dano, Richard Manuel and Garth Hudson, where most of the album was composed, later to be recorded in studios in Los Angeles and New York. With an iconic painting by Dylan as the cover, Music from Big Pink laid the foundation for The Band’s signature blend of rock, soul, country, R&B, blues and more.
*About Chest Fever - Chest Fever is comprised of members of the San Diego Music Award winning rock band Mrs. Henry, including keyboardist Jody Bagley, guitarist Dan Cervantes, and bassist Blake Dean. The lineup is rounded out with organist Doug Organ and drummer Allan Ritter. Each a talented lead vocalist on their own, the group setting gives them a chance to combine their talents in an incendiary celebration of melody and verse. From The Band and Bob Dylan’s collaborative home recordings, The Basement Tapes, through Music From Big Pink and The Last Waltz. Chest Fever is the next step in this tradition, moving the legacy of The Band forward into the 21st century. The stories, legend and community of The Band live on through the passion and magic of Chest Fever, newly embodied in the live performance and burning energy they bring to every stage.
Special thanks to Chris and Chest Fever.
