Anders Osborne was born in 1966 in Uddevalla, Sweden and at a young age knew that he spoke the language of music and poetry well. He fell in love with everything from Vivaldi, Chopin and Black Sabbath to Robert Johnson, Joni Mitchell, Van Morrison and Cat Stevens to John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Bob Dylan and Bob Marley. Osborne released his first album Doin Fine in 1989 and as would be the case on is future releases, he wrote virtually all of the material. His songs have also appeared on recordings of other artists including two he co-wrote with Keb Mo for the latters Grammy winning Slow Down, and number one Country hit Watch The Wind Blow By, Tim McGraw. Others who have recorded his songs include Brad Paisley, Aaron Neville, and Trombone Shorty.
After living and performing there for almost four decades Osborne has become a fixture of the New Orleans musical community. Guitar Player called him <i>the poet laureate of the fertile roots music scene of Louisiana.</i> New Orleans Gambit Weekly has honored Osborne as the Entertainer of The Year. OffBeat named him the Crescent City Best Guitarist on three occasions, and the Best Songwriter twice. He has appeared at Jazz Fest for 35 years and will perform at the festival again in 2024.
Dan Lebo Lebowitz is a six-string slinger and singer known for his one of a kind versatility, deft songcraft, and irresistible charm. Possessing a signature tone, the vehicle for his fluid, buttery sound is a flat top acoustic guitar that he has personally sliced and diced into an electric flat top, with a vintage style humbucker pickup. Inherently committed to an improvisational approach, Lebo embodies the realm of melodic and soulful sounds.
Performing since his early teens in Saratoga, CA, Lebos path has been one of constant exploration, both sonically and conceptually. While obtaining a degree in Ethnomusicology at The University of California, Santa Barbara, he co-founded ALO (Animal Liberation Orchestra) with childhood friends Zach Gill and Steve Adams. The band was groomed in their early years by James Brown, and have since recorded nine albums (the last 6 have been released on Jack Johnsons record label, Brushfire Records/Universal Republic). ALO tours the world, playing prestigious amphitheaters and regularly headlining multi-night runs, at venues such as San Francisco's legendary Fillmore Auditorium.
In addition to ALO, Lebo leads his own band, Lebo & Friends, featuring a rotating cast of musical legends and rising stars. Lebo has become an in demand musical director and featured guest at events around the globe, instantly elevating all lineups he joins. Dan Lebo Lebowitz is synonymous with the art of collaboration, and appears simultaneously in more high profile projects than many musicians do in a lifetime.
In recent years, he has been embraced by the Grateful Dead family, memorably collaborating with the surviving members on separate occasions. During a Bay Area concert with Bob Weir, highly respected scribe, Blair Jackson, offered the lofty praise: I was really impressed by Lebos guitar work which sounded like a combination of (Jerry) Garcia and George Benson, but was completely original. He regularly performs with Phil Lesh & Friends at Terrapin Crossroads and has also joined Lesh at the legendary Capitol Theater in NY.
