The show was filmed at the magnificent War Memorial Auditorium, a landmark building established in 1925 as a tribute to the thousands of Tennesseans who gave their lives during World War I. A rare snowy day in Nashville set the stage for an even rarer event at the one-of-a-kind venue — a career-spanning concert by icon Plant and the
BAND OF JOY, featuring
LED ZEPPELIN favorites, traditional songs, hits from
Plant's solo catalog, and new material.
Robert Plant explains the excitement of the evening in his own words in the liner notes included with the DVD: "Some years back I was propelled by chance, with little planning or expectation into an American way...with a lean and pull into a new direction...voices and harmony, restraint and explosion, tight and loose, great joy in great company....in a blizzard in Nashville. My thanks to one and all for aiding and abetting this exciting bend in the road."
"Robert Plant & The Band Of Joy: Live From The Artists Den" is the sixth concert DVD release from the
Artists Den.

Rock And Roll Hall Of Famer
Robert Plant has over 40 years invested in his legendary career in music — and he's still going strong. In 1967, he formed a group called the
BAND OF JOY with drummer
John Bonham, before the two joined with guitarist
Jimmy Page and bassist
John Paul Jones the following year to form the world-renowned
LED ZEPPELIN. After his 2007
"Raising Sand" collaboration with
Alison Krauss garnered him six
Grammy Awards,
Plant created a new
BAND OF JOY, which features Nashville native
Buddy Miller and
Artists Den alumna
Patty Griffin. Their widely acclaimed album,
"Band Of Joy", was nominated for "Best Americana Album" and "Best Solo Rock Vocal Performance" at the 2011
Grammy Awards.
