VIDEO: Sharon Jones leads a Seeger superjam at Radio City Music Hall

Published May 04 2009, 02:21 PM by Ryan Stewart

Last night, indie rock luminaries like Bon Iver, Feist, the National, Dirty Projectors, and David Byrne gathered at Radio City Music Hall to perform, among other things, music from the recent Dark Was the Night compilation, which benefits the Red Hot Organization.

Last night was also Pete Seeger's 90th birthday, so Sharon Jones, who, along with the Dap Kings, were set to close out the night, invited the whole crew up on stage to do "This Land Is Your Land." Video is above via Stereogum, also check their post for photos and a quality recap of the evening.
