Oh Boy Records is hosting a special benefit evening, “The Songs of John Prine,” July 27 at Basement East to support Jessi Zazu of the band Those Darlins in her battle with cancer. To celebrate the re-release of the 2010 John Prine tribute record Broken Hearts & Dirty Windows, Oh Boy Records will host the night of music featuring Nashville musicians covering classic John Prine songs, and will also be re-pressing the album (which includes Those Darlins’ rendition of “Let’s Talk Dirty in Hawaiian”) on vinyl.
The lineup for the show features artists inspired by the man himself with performances by Alex Caress, Amanda Shires, Andrew Leahey, Brothers Osborne, Caitlin Rose, Caroline Rose, Colter Wall, Cory Branan, Darrin Bradbury, Elise Davis, Elizabeth Cook, Holly Williams, Jason Isbell, Jon Latham, Kelsey Waldon, Larissa Murphy, Lilly Hiatt, Muddy Magnolias, The Nicholson Brothers, Paul Cauthen, and The Whiskey Gentry with more to be announced.
The event is being sponsored by Hattie B’s, Flavor Catering, The Press House, and more, and all ticket proceeds will benefit Jessi Zazu.
