Pictured: Michael Ubaldini will perform as part of a tribute to legendary singer-songwriter Gram Parsons at Hotel Cafe in Los Angeles on Saturday, Sept. 16.

Although Gram Parsons was relatively unknown when he passed away at the Joshua Tree Inn at the age of 26 on Sept. 19, 1973, he had been at the forefront of the fusion of country music and rock and roll via his recordings as a solo artist as well as with the International Submarine Band, The Byrds and the Flying Burrito Brothers.

Parsons' enduring and highly influential "Cosmic American Music" will be front and center on Saturday night (Sept. 16, 2023) as part of Gram International presented at the Hotel Cafe in Los Angeles.

Dubbed "50 Years Gone" in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of Parsons' tragic death in 1973, the event will feature a slew of top-tier Americana artists performing beginning at 7 p.m. (doors open at 6:30 p.m.)

The event will feature:

Paul Givant (Of Roses Pawn Shop)

Michael Ubaldini & His Band

David Serby Band

The Far West

Heather Lomax

Emily Zuzik

Coyote Moon

Steve Key

Author Pamela Des Barres (special guest)

"I'm excited about the Gram Parsons event – it’s the first real big concert event I've put on," said Ubaldini, who is coordinating the West Coast event. "I've partnered up with Will James who started it 16 years ago to try to get Gram into the Country Music Hall Of Fame."

Hotel Cafe is located at 1623 N. Cahuenga Blvd., Los Angeles, CA. Tickets to attend the event are $15. Get more information about the concert event HERE.
