They will recreate the music of The Band’s 1976 Last Waltz concert as a tribute and benefit at the Franklin Music Hall on Saturday.
More than three dozen local musicians are involved in 'Last Waltz,' the tribute to Philadelphia concert booker Bryan Dilworth, who put together a 2013 version, and died in 2020. Legendary rock promoter Bill Graham produced the original show on Thanksgiving Day in 1976 which Martin Scorsese filmed for a documentary movie. The Philly concert is also a benefit for the Make The World Better foundation, which builds playgrounds and recreation facilities in the city.
