Cat Power announces Bob Dylan tribute Royal Albert Hall show for November

Today, Cat Power - the singer/songwriter/producer Chan Marshall – announces details of a very special London show. On November 5th, Marshall will play the iconic Royal Albert Hall with a set recreating Bob Dylan’s legendary 1966 show at the same venue in full.

Dylan’s 1966 Royal Albert Hall concert was the culmination of one of the most consequential tours in the history of rock & roll—when he electrified his songs, and by doing so enraged his devoted audience. Recorded and released at first as a bootleg LP, the event actually occurred at Manchester Free Trade Hall, but was mistakenly attributed to Royal Albert Hall.

Cat Power will bring those songs to Royal Albert Hall on November 5th, performing them in the same order as Dylan himself: the first half of the show being an acoustic set before been joined by her electric band for the second half.

Cat Power is well known for her ability to “burrow right into the marrow of a song” (Mojo), and this November gig will be a showcase of that skill as she honours one of her biggest heroes.

Marshall says of the event: “When I finally got the opportunity to play The RAH, it was a no brainer. I just wanted to sing Dylan songs. And as much as any, this collection of his songs, to me, belong there.”

Marshall has previously covered Dylan several times on record, such as in 2007 for Todd Haynes’s film I’m Not There. Listen to her rendition of “Stuck Inside of Mobile With The Memphis Blues Again” here.
