The supergroup Alone & Together concert series is a collaborative affair, which has previously been described by its members as “a series wherein some of your favorite singer/songwriters/musicians get together and cover one another, in addition to playing their own songs, choice covers, and surprise jams.” The Alone & Together concerts are a relatively rare occurrence, only having done a handful of concerts in the past, though sporting impressive cameos from the likes of Bob Weir and Jim James. Recently, the supergroup announced a three-night run in December featuring Sam Cohen, Joe Russo, Elvis Perkins, Eric D. Johnson, and Josh Kaufman. As Cohen noted on his Facebook page about the announcement, “This is going to be awesome – psyched to hit the road and make more music with a few of my favorite buds and collaborators: Joe Russo, Eric Johnson (Fruit Bats), Josh Kaufman and for this run we’re very excited for the addition of Elvis Perkins and his incredible songs! We’ll be singing each other’s tunes, backing each other up, doing stuff ‘alone and together.'”
