Chattanooga, Tenn. — A benefit concert for Butch Baldassari will be held at the Barking Legs Theater in Chattanooga on August 2, 2008.

A performer who has appeared in the theater several times over the years, Baldassari has been engaged in an ongoing battle with an inoperable brain tumor for over a year.

Concert organizers are still finalizing performers but have confirmed appearances by Norman Blake, fiddle great Barbara Lamb, Fletcher Bright & The Dismembered Tennesseans, and Lou Wamp & Swing Shift. Additional performers are expected to be announced in the next few days and will be added to this news release as they are made available.

Tickets are $20 in advance and at the door. Barking Legs Theater is located at 1307 Dodds Ave., Chattanooga, Tennessee at the base of Missionary Ridge.
