HDATZ opening for Levon Helm - 7:30pm

French St.
Lowell MA 01852

HDATZ will have the extreme pleasure of opening for Levon Helm, the longtime drummer for The Band. He wore many musical hats throughout his long career, including multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, singer, impresario, studio owner, studio engineer and producer.

The newly released Dirt Farmer is Levon's first solo, studio album in twenty-five years. A project particularly close to his heart, the CD contains music reminiscent of his past and songs handed down from his parents. The album won the 2008 Grammy Award for Best Traditional Folk Album.
