October 12, a group of Los Angeles residing artists will come together at the Orpheum Theatre in Los Angeles for a one-time concert event called Echo in the Canyon. The confirmed line-up includes Fiona Apple, Beck, Jakob Dylan, Cat Power, Regina Spektor, and Jade (formerly of Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes).
The concert will celebrate the 50th anniversary of the birth of the Southern California folk-rock scene (which began with the release of The Byrds’ debut album “Mr. Tambourine Man” in the summer of 1965) and will feature the music of The Byrds, The Beach Boys, Buffalo Springfield, The Mamas and the Papas, Love, The Association and others.
A companion studio recording featuring all the artists performing at Echo in the Canyon and many others will be released in early 2016. Â A track from the album premiered featuring a duet by Cat Power and Jakob Dylan performing the Turtles’ “You Showed Me” (written by The Byrds’ Roger McGuinn and Gene Clark).
