Ringo's performances at the Ryman Auditorium tonight and tomorrow are being taped for a two- hour CBS/Paramount+ TV special that will benefit fire relief efforts in Los Angeles, according to media reports.
The Ringo and Friends concert special is set to air sometime this spring and features him accompanied by Billy Strings, Larkin Poe and Molly Tuttle, who guest on his new country-themed Look Up LP, along with other stars, including Brenda Lee, Jack White, Rodney Crowell, Emmylou Harris, Sheryl Crow, the War and Treaty, Sarah Jarosz and more.
“I’m excited to hear my songs done in a country vein and to play with this incredible group of musicians,” Ringo said in a statement. “It will be two nights of peace, love and country music.”
According to Rolling Stone:
The program will showcase Starr performing songs from his new album alongside some of his classic Beatles tracks and solo hits, including “Boys,” “Act Naturally,” “Yellow Submarine,” “Don’t Pass Me By” and “It Don’t Come Easy.” Proceeds from the release of a planned all-star performance of “With a Little Help From My Friends” from the show will benefit the American Red Cross’ California wildfire relief efforts. The special will also stream on Paramount+; an exact air date has yet to be determined.
