Solo acoustic shows will include Liverpool, London and BBC appearances

Jeff Slate, the founder of the New York City mod/classic rock band The Badge, will appear at two George Harrison tribute shows dubbed “For George” at Liverpool’s St. George Hall on Saturday, August 1, 2009.

While in Liverpool Slate will make return appearances on Billy Butler’s Friday, July 31st, afternoon BBC Merseyside show as well as renown Beatles historian and BBC presenter Spencer Leigh’s Saturday evening program on August 1st.  Slate’s appearance on Spencer Leigh’s show will come in between the afternoon and evening performances at the Harrison tribute.

Slate will also treat London to two acoustic shows.  He will appear at Islington’s Hope & Anchor (207 Upper Street, Islington) at 8:30 pm on Thursday, July 30th, followed by a secret, closing-time show that same night at a venue to be announced shortly.

The “For George” performances are set for 3:00 pm and 7:30 pm on August 1, 2009, the 38th anniversary of Harrison’s trailblazing Concerts for Bangladesh, the first large-scale musical event dedicated to charity awareness, which took place in 1971.
