David and Sam Grisman proudly announce Dawg at 80, a once-in-a-lifetime musical celebration for David “Dawg” Grisman’s 80th birthday. This special event will take place on Tuesday, March 25, 2025, at the historic Moore Theatre in Seattle, Washington.
Dawg at 80 will present an extraordinary concert honoring the vast contributions of David Grisman to acoustic music. David Grisman will perform new compositions, while his son, Sam Grisman, leads a retrospective of earlier Dawg music. They will be joined by an outstanding lineup of friends and fellow musicians, including Darol Anger, Danny Barnes, Alex Hargreaves, Dominick Leslie, Mike Marshall, Ronnie McCoury, Todd Phillips, and more.
A note from Sam Grisman:
“For my entire life, David Grisman has taught me how to become a better musician and a better person. He is also one of my best friends, and my father. Sometimes the gravity of this privilege is hard to articulate. Having an opportunity like this, to gather and honor Dawg music and its creator, with such a legendary amalgamation of friends and heroes, will give us all a chance to show our gratitude with an evening of his music. I am honored to invite you to join us in celebrating the musical universe of David ‘Dawg’ Grisman as he celebrates his 80th birthday, surrounded by family and friends.”
A note from David Grisman (Dawg):
“Dear friends, I’m so looking forward to this once-in-a-lifetime musical happening. Thanks to Sam, friends, and family for putting it together. I hope you all can make it! — Love, Dawg”
