Anders Osborne Announces Carl Dufrene Tribute Livestream

Anders Osborne will honor the legacy of bassist and longtime collaborator Carl Dufrene, who died earlier this week, during an upcoming livestream. Osborne will perform his 2016 studio album Spacedust & Ocean Views live in its entirety this Friday, August 21 at 7:30 p.m. ET/4:30 p.m. PT on the JamBase Livestreams Calendar via Facebook.

Dufrene had a storied history of performing and recording with Anders and more recently filled the same role with North Mississippi Allstars. “Spacedust & Ocean Views was the last record Carl and I did together, part of that session also turned into the album Flowerbox,” Osborne stated. “I’ve decided to play SD&OV in it’s entirety on Friday’s FB livestream in honor of our dear friend Carl Dufrene.”

I’ve invited special guests Tiffany Lamson who sang on that record and Shane Theriot to help us play guitar. Both of them originate from down the Bayou like Carl so it feels really appropriate to have them with us for this.

Please tune in and join us in celebrating my sweet boy Carl Dufrene’s life.
