Bettye LaVette To Light Up Town Hall John Lennon Tribute December 2

Written By Mike Greenblatt
Bettye LaVette John Lennon Tribute

The 43rd annual John Lennon Tribute concert will take place at Town Hall in New York City on December 2 with Graham Nash, Judy Collins, Rosanne Cash, Marc Cohn, Willie Nile and Lisa Fischer. But we’re most excited about Soul Goddess Bettye LaVette adding her royal presence to the festivities. Even if she sings but one song, it will worth the price of admission. Have you ever seen this woman sing live on a stage? There is no one like her. The Essex County resident blows ‘em all away. Period.
