FOREVER YOUNG - Music & Back Pages of Bob Dylan

THE START: Jami D, Singer/Songwriter, grew up in Woodstock in the late 1960s & early ‘70s, and was clearly influenced by her artistic and musical surroundings. She has been listening to and singing the many versions of Dylan songs since she was young.

Following the release of the biopic, 'A Complete Unknown' she felt a calling to honor this artist she had been appreciating all these years. She began contacting musicians she had worked with throughout the decades. Finding the best of the best of her favorite New England musicians, “Forever Young” began its work developing a Tribute to the works of Bob Dylan. This Tribute was immediately invited to perform at the iconic Academy of Music Theater in Northampton in 2025 along with a private party of 250 Dylan appreciators in the fall of 2025.

This year, the show finally comes home to where it all began for its Band-Leader, Jami D; back home to The World-Renowned Woodstock Playhouse, where she first was introduced to Dylan as a child! On May 24th, Bob Dylan’s Birthday, Jami’s 10-piece ensemble, along with special performance guests, including Peter Newland of the band FAT and a Show-Time introduction by her brother, Woodstock Poet, Sparrow X-Carter, We Celebrate his Birth with an All Out BOB DYLAN Birthday Bash ~ This will be an Unforgettable Woodstock Event not to be missed!​

The Woodstock Playhouse, established in 1938 as a rural extension of Broadway and Summer Theater by a member of one of Woodstock's Oldest Families, became a central hub for the launching of major careers on Broadway and in film and television - including Robert Hutton, Larry Hagman, Lee Marvin, Diane Keaton, Chevy Chase, Andrea Martin, Karl Malden, Kitty Kelly, Elissa Landi, Judd Hirsch, Anne Meara, Dick Van Patten and Estelle Parsons to name just a few - as it continues to do today.

During the late 1950s and into the 60s, the Woodstock Playhouse directors instituted Saturday morning children's productions & concerts as well as midnight concerts featuring such artists as Tom Paxton, Peter Yarrow, Tim Hardin, Pete Seeger, Happy and Artie Traum, Billy Faire, and Jack Elliot. The Band, including Levon Helm, Rick Danko, Garth Hudson, Richard Manuel and Jaime Robbie Robertson, would record their album Stage Fright at the Woodstock Playhouse with Todd Rundgren serving as sound engineer. As the 1960s evolved and Woodstock found itself at the center of a cultural revolution, the Playhouse was host to the final concert in a series of performances known as the Sound-Outs in 1968. Produced by John “Jocko” Moffitt and generally perceived as a precursor concert to the Woodstock Festival held in Bethel a year later, the Playhouse concert in 1968 featured Richie Havens, with additional performances by Jerry Moore, Don Preston, Major Wiley and Bunky and Jake. 

Throughout the 60s and 70s, legendary musicians and bands played at the Woodstock Playhouse, including Arlo Guthrie, Van Morrison, Orleans, Full Moon, Sonia Malkine, John Hammond, Holy Moses, Dave Van Ronk, Levon and The Band, The Montgomeries, Geoff and Maria Muldaur, Jim Rooney and Bill Keith, and after the burning and rebuilding of the Woodstock Playhouse: Leon Russell, Cindy Cashdollar, Jacke DeJohnette, Sonny Rollins, Peter Yarrow, Bethany and Rufus Cappadocia, John Sebastian, Natalie Merchant, Larry Campbell, David Bromberg, Richie Havens, Noel Paul Stookey, The Indigo Girls, Leon Russell, Well Strung, all of the amazing Headliners at the annual String Sampler Concert, and so many more.
