What a dream pairing: Hot f&#@ing Tuna still going strong, teaming up with the Hudson Valley’s resident stars of deep roots and Americana, Larry Campbell & Teresa Williams. If L and T don’t join J and J at some point, something is terribly wrong in America. It all happens in the beautiful old theater environment of the Bardavon in Poughkeepsie on Thursday, December 5. The event is billed as Hot Tuna’s 50th anniversary. Somehow it feels longer, perhaps because the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame pairing of Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Casady goes back to high school, well before the beginning of Jefferson Airplane. This is a can’t-miss show for fans of expert roots/traditionalist and psychedelic guitar-playing, great songs, deep relationships. Ticket prices start at $49.
