DNR With Y's Man Bob Altbaum to Rock the House

In Benefit Concert for The Westport Library

Y's Man Bob Altbaum and the DNR rock band will perform at a concert to benefit The Westport Library this Saturday, June 14 from 7:00 to 9:00 pm in the Library's Trefz Forum.

Formed in 2002, the (almost) all-physician rock band DNR has been a community favorite for two decades, playing vintage tunes from the 1960s and 70s, including the music of Bruce Springsteen, the Rolling Stones, Van Morrison, and the Beatles.

DNR has performed at The Levitt Pavilion and has donated its time at many charitable events including fundraisers for pancreatic and breast cancer, Norwalk Hospital and ALS. In this performance at the Library, the band will talk about their history between songs and share some behind-the-scenes stories.

With your registration/ticket purchase, you receive one complimentary margarita, paloma, or aguafresca at Don Memo in Westport. Please show your registration upon arrival.
