She will recreate Dylan's setlist in full, performing the first half as an acoustic set before beng joined by her full live band for the rest of the show.
Cat Power, real name Chan Marshall, said of the upcoming event, "When I finally got the opportunity to play The RAH, it was a no brainer. I just wanted to sing Dylan songs. And as much as any, this collection of his songs, to me, belong there."
