Produced by Harrison’s son, Dhani, and David Zonshine, the live tribute will be available in 4 configurations including 2xCD/DVD, 2xCD/Blu-Ray, 3xLP (180 gram) and digital download.
Discussing the concert and his father’s iconic music, Dhani Harrison said: “I’ve always imagined a small club show where my generation of musicians could cut loose on some of the deeper tracks from his career… So, in a totally new and vibrant way, I once again found myself taking the stage with some of my most treasured musical heroes to the sound of the most familiar music in my life… I hope you enjoy listening to these as much as I do. They are some of the best interpretations of my father’s songs I could have ever thought possible.”
George Fest: A Night To Celebrate The Music Of George Harrison is released the day after what would have been his 73rd birthday: 26 February 2016.
