Bob Dylan named MusiCares Person of the Year, to be feted at all-star benefit concert

by Hailey Colwell

September 23, 2014

Bob Dylan is set to perform at Minneapolis's Orpheum Theatre on Nov. 4-6, the first date coinciding with the release of a mammoth box set of the "complete" Basement Tapes recordings. A new studio album is also expected from Dylan by year's end, though details have not been announced.

Dylan will be our Local Current Artist of the Month in October; watch for reviews of every Dylan studio album, written by members of the Current staff, throughout October. Also, expect a special day of programming on our Local Current music stream on Nov. 4.
