"Warren Haynes Christmas Jam" returned for its 30th annual installment in December 2018. The charity event was held over 2 days at the US Cellular Center in the guitarist's hometown of Asheville, North Carolina, on December 7th and 8th, 2018. Now, for the 1st time, it's being released on 4 different vinyl sets, a 2 CD + 1 DVD set and a deluxe 3 CD + 2 BluRay set.
It features performances by Gov't Mule who presented a "Dark Side Of The Mule" tribute to Pink Floyd, as well as Grace Potter, Jamey Johnson, Marco Benevento and Mike Gordon. Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl also headlined one night for a set billed as "Dave Grohl And Friends Play 'Play'" in reference to his 23 minute instrumental. Gov't Mule, Eric Church, Jim James and Joe Bonamassa round out the lineup and many special guests.
This unique line up and concert is captured on video and audio and released on December 8th, 2023.
