Bob Feldman Tribute

Fitzgerald Theater, September 9

Red House Records [3] owner Bob Feldman [4] was a fire hydrant of fun and positive energy before he died, a year ago January, at the age of fifty-six. With a folk-music show on tiny KFAI [5] that was strictly a labor of love, Feldman cherished music enough to achieve a remarkably high batting average on the quality of music released on his label. Thanks to Feldman's remarkable ability to recognize and attract talent, Red House Records is now home to some of the finest acoustic singer/songwriters in the country.

Now many of those folks whom he patronized—Greg Brown [8] (the first and still the best Red House artist), Eliza Gilkyson [9], Dave Moore [10], Peter Ostroushko [11], and many, many others—will pay tribute to his memory at an overstuffed gig that should produce a memorable confluence of combos and pairings, passionately offbeat covers, funny and tear-jerking anecdotes, and a rousing, poignant finale on a very crowded stage. 651-290-1221; www.fitzgeraldtheater.publicradio.org [12]
