On Sunday, May 25, the Claridge Hotel’s historic Celebrity Theatre will come alive with the sounds of rock legends as the “Dylan Dead Zeppelin” concert takes the stage. This unique performance will feature renowned guitarist Jaden Lehman of “Oteil & Friends,” whose musical roots trace back to collaborations with the Allman Brothers and Dead & Company.
Lehman will perform a special tribute as part of a live reenactment of Bob Dylan’s iconic 30th anniversary concert, “My Back Pages.” He is set to play the role of George Harrison, delivering Harrison’s moving tribute to Dylan during the celebratory event.
The concert is headlined by the band Dead Zep, led by keyboardist and musical director Waynard Scheller. Scheller is widely recognized for his work alongside Grateful Dead founding member Bob Weir, the Jerry Garcia Family, and The Yoko Ono Foundation. Known for blending musical artistry with historical reverence, Dead Zep will open the evening with a medley of beloved Grateful Dead and Led Zeppelin classics.
Following the opening set, the band will dive into a full-scale tribute to Dylan’s 1992 anniversary concert at Madison Square Garden, where a roster of rock royalty joined Dylan on stage. The performance will honor legendary guests such as Tom Petty, Eric Clapton, Neil Young, Chrissie Hynde, Roger McGuinn, and members of The Band.
The “Dylan Dead Zeppelin” experience promises a one-of-a-kind journey through music history, with masterful performances and a deep reverence for the icons who shaped generations.
