This year’s Rex Foundation benefit concert, American Beauty, will be held on December 6th at The Fillmore in San Francisco, CA. The show will feature a complete re-creation of the Grateful Dead‘s iconic album of the same name, with proceeds going to the Rex Foundation.
ALO guitarist Dan “Lebo” Lebowitz has curated a band called the Arrows Of Neon for the benefit. Lebo will be joined by Tim Carbone, Jason Crosby, Jackie Greene, Wally Ingram, Scott Law, Ben Morrison, Todd Sheaffer, John Skehan, Alex Morrison, T Sisters, and Robin Sylvester at The Fillmore.
“We had been discussing a theme for the event this year and decided that we wanted to do a complete version of the seminal Grateful Dead album American Beauty,” according to the Rex Foundation. “There are so many fabulous songs contained on the grooves of this album that we knew it would make for a fabulous night of music. The album will be re-created in its entirety, and then the band will continue to play into the night.”
Tickets go on sale to the general public this Friday, November 8th at 10 a.m. (PST) here. Premium packages are also available.
