Victoria Williams, Todd Nance of Widespread Panic and Guy Picciotto of Fugazi will be among the artists paying tribute to Vic Chesnutt for two nights at the 40 Watt Club in Athens, GA.
"The Vic Shows: A Celebration of Vic Chesnutt's Life and Music" will take place Feb. 19-20, according to the venue website.
The concerts also will feature appearances by Lambchop, Dave Barbe (Drive-By Truckers producer), Kelly Hogan and Will Johnson of Centro-Matic. Additional information including a full list of participants can be found at the 40 Watt Club's website.
