Old Crow Medicine Show Plays Blonde On Blonde

Old Crow Medicine Show Plays Blonde On Blonde

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of Bob Dylan’s classic album Blonde on Blonde, the Country Music Hall of Fame ® and Museum will host Grammy-winning Old Crow Medicine Show in concert at 8 p.m. May 12 and May 13, in the museum’s CMA Theater.

Fifty years ago, Bob Dylan came to Nashville, joined forces with a gang of brilliant studio musicians, and recorded Blonde on Blonde, an album that whirled whimsy, poetry, and psychedelic aggression into a sound that Dylan called “thin wild mercury.” That album, which featured classics including “Just Like a Woman,” “Sad Eyed Lady of the Lowlands,” and “Visions of Johanna,” solidified Nashville as an ecumenical Music City.

For two nights at the CMA Theater, Grammy-winning Grand Ole Opry stringband Old Crow Medicine Show will perform Dylan’s masterful double-album, offering a unique spin on Blonde on Blonde in celebration of this half-century anniversary and of the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum’s ongoing exhibition Dylan, Cash, and the Nashville Cats: A New Music City presented by Citi. “He helped this whole city along, and everybody here owes a debt of gratitude to Bob Dylan,” said Old Crow Medicine Show singer and multi-instrumentalist, Ketch Secor. With two nights of beautifully curated, undeniably delivered music, Old Crow Medicine Show will pay down that debt in surprising and unforgettable ways.
