Interview: Chest Fever

Description
The Band: A History sits down with Chest Fever, the official revival of The Band.  If you remember my interview a few months ago with Mrs. Henry, a great band from California. In that case, they are back with a new project, Chest Fever, a band that has been given the stamp of approval to carry on the musical legacy of The Band. They are taking their show on the road for the fiftieth anniversary of The Band's live album Rock of Ages, touring across the United States and Canada. I chat with them about how Chest Fever was created, the preparation for the tour and the balance of replicating The Band's sound and making the music their own.  Find out more about Chest Fever and their tour dates on their official website: http://www.chestfeverofficial.com.
