The Last Walt w/ Walker Lukens, Bright Light Social Hour, Shakey Graves, Jess Williamson, Kam Franklin, David Ramirez, Israel Nash, Mobley, Sarah Jaffe, Fat Tony, Vlad Holiday

Let’s clear up any confusion about the Last Walt by discussing what it’s not:
- It’s NOT a Last Waltz tribute show. The title’s a joke about organizer Walker Lukens being forever mis-billed as Walter. No songs by the Band will be performed.
- Despite it being a sprawling December theatre show, there’s NO holiday tie-in. “I hate Christmas music,” reveals Lukens. “And it’s degrading to make musicians play it.”
- It’s NOT a release show for Lukens’ excellent new album Accessible Beauty. “I don’t really care about playing my music,” he explains. “That’s why I’m doing a massive variety show.”

Do expect magic, comedy, performance art, a preposterous host named Jeph, and a revue of acts like Shakey Graves, Jess Williamson, Kam Franklin, and Fat Tony doing special, one-off performances.
