18th Annual Jeff Buckley Tribute
Each year uncommon ground hosts 2 nights of very special intimate concerts to celebrate the life of Jeff Buckley.  We chose Jeff's birthday of November 17th .  This year Jeff would have been 49 years old.  Looking back now it's hard to imagine him any older than the 2 magical nights that he performed in our snow bound single coffeehouse storefront.

We would like to thank all of you for attending and helping us keep Jeff's legacy alive.  We know that Jeff will live on with all of you through the appreciation of his music and the spirit of each of tonight's performers.

You will be pleased to know that all of the net proceeds from the tribute concerts are donated to the Old Town School of Folk Music to help with their scholarship funds.  These funds are used to enroll students of all ages who would otherwise not be able to afford to learn how to play an instrument.  Thank you for your support of the next generation of artists.

A bit of history:

On a snowy night in February of 1994, Jeff Buckley played a legendary set at Uncommon Ground. This performance was lauded "Best Concert of the Year" by Greg Kot of the Chicago Tribune, and was recently recalled by Mr. Kot as one of the best concerts he's ever attended.

Jeff Buckley was born in California's Orange County in 1966 and died in a tragic drowning accident in Memphis on May 29, 1997. He had emerged in New York City's avant-garde club scene in the 1990's as one of the most remarkable musical artists of his generation, acclaimed by audiences, critics, and fellow musicians alike.
