Willie Nelson‘s traveling, multi-band music fest, Outlaw Music Festival, stopped at Camden, NJ’s BB&T Pavilion last night. Nelson was joined by Lukas Nelson & The Promise Of The Real, Tedeschi Trucks Band, Greensky Bluegrass, Particle Kid and Van Morrison for the Saturday occasion.
Nelson played a 15-song set, chock full of classic originals and country covers. For the final song of Nelson’s set and the evening, Nelson invited up jamgrass superstars, Greensky Bluegrass, who played a set earlier in the evening. About halfway through the tune, red bandanas started appearing, Greensky’s subtle nod to the Red Headed Stranger. Huddled around a few microphones, all five members of Greensky Bluegrass provided backing vocals on “I’ll Fly Away”.
Luckily for fans not in attendance, video of Greensky’s sit-in with Willie Nelson has surfaced. Watch below:
