Jesse Malin, the New York punk legend who was left paralyzed from the waist down after suffering a spinal stroke last year, has booked a hometown comeback show December 1st at the Beacon Theatre with an all-star roster of special guests.
The D Generation frontman will be joined on the bill by Lucinda Williams, J Mascis (Dinosaur Jr.), Jakob Dylan (The Wallflowers), Rickie Lee Jones, Adam Duritz and David Immerglück (both of Counting Crows), and Alejandro Escovedo. Actors Michael Imperioli (The Sopranos) and Mary-Louise Parker (Weeds) will serve as hosts, with more guests to be announced.
Tickets will benefit the Sweet Relief fund set up to help Malin out with his medical and rehabilitation bills. Premium and VIP tickets will be available via Sweet Relief beginning Wednesday (June 26th) at 10 a.m ET. A pre-sale for regular tickets launches at the same time via Ticketmaster using the code PATRONSAINTS, before a general onsale starts on Friday (June 28th) at 10 a.m. ET.
Malin will be performing with his longtime solo band. Back in December, the singer-songwriter told Rolling Stone of his progress, “I am getting some strength back in my legs, but it moves a lot slower than I would like. I don’t want to portray it like I’m ready to do the James Brown splits onstage. I definitely have a long way to go, but I’m blessed and so grateful for the amazing fans and friends that I have.”
The concert news comes just a few weeks after an all-star tribute album was announced to benefit Malin. Silver Patron Saints: The Songs of Jesse Malin, set to arrive on September 20th, will feature Bruce Springsteen, Billie Joe Armstrong, Lucinda Williams, Elvis Costello, Rancid, Dinosaur Jr., Counting Crows, and more covering Malin’s solo songs and D Generation tunes. Pre-orders are available here.
