Tonight, Brooklyn Bowl in New York City will host a tribute to Grateful Dead lyricist and internet pioneer John Perry Barlow dubbed “The Songs Of Barlow.” Proceeds from the benefit concert, which comes exactly one year after JPB’s death, will go towards the late John Perry Barlow’s Freedom Of Press Foundation. If you can’t make it to Brooklyn Bowl to celebrate Barlow in person, there’s an option to watch from home.
Relix will host a free webcast of “The Songs Of Barlow” live from Brooklyn via The Relix Channel. The Terrapin Family Band‘s Jason Crosby, Grahame Lesh, Ross James, Elliott Peck and Alex Koford will perform at the event. Others on the lineup include Talking Heads co-founding member Jerry Harrison, guitarist and baseball star Jake Peavy, multi-instrumentalist Josh Kaufman, Rachel Ana Dobken and Aishlin Harrison.
“Cassidy,” “Throwing Stones” and “Hell In A Bucket” are just a few of the songs JPB wrote with Bob Weir. Tickets are on sale now here. Watch the webcast starting at 8:15 p.m. ET below:
