Jack Rose Commemeration Shows Announced

Two commemorative events will take place to coincide with the release of ‘Luck in the Valley’, the final album from the recently deceased guitarist Jack Rose.

Firstly, you can see our farewell tribute to Rose by clicking here, a review of Luck in the Valley, which arrives on February 22 via Thrill Jockey will soon hit these pages.

To celebrate his life, warmth and music people will gather in Rose’s home-town of Philadelphia and London on February 13 and February 16 respectively. A phenomenal range of musicians will be performing at the two events, all of whom were friends of Mr Rose and whose music he admired.
