Vuonna 2014 Los Angelesissa järjestetty George Fest on Beatles -legenda George Harrisonin pojan, Dhani Harrisonin, organisoima konsertti vuonna 2001 edesmenneen isänsä muistolle. Konsertissa nähtiin musiikin supernimiä, kuten Brian Wilson (The Beach Boys), Norah Jones, Brandon Flowers (The Killers), Ann Wilson (Heart) The Flaming Lips, Ben Harper, Conan O’Brien ja monia muita George Harrisonin musiikista omia uriaan ammentaneita artisteja. Albumin ovat tuottaneet Dhani Harrison ja David Zonshine: ”I’ve always imagined a small club show where my generation of musicians could cut loose on some of the deeper tracks from his career… So, in a totally new and vibrant way, I once again found myself taking the stage with some of my most treasured musical heroes to the sound of the most familiar music in my life… I hope you enjoy listening to these as much as I do. They are some of the best interpretations of my father’s songs I could have ever thought possible”, Dhani Harrison kertoo.

“George Fest: A Night To Celebrate The Music of George Harrison” -konserttitaltionti julkaistaan 26. helmikuuta ja siitä on saatavilla 2xCD/DVD, 2xCD/Blu-Ray, 3xLP (180 gram) sekä digitaalisesti ladattava albumi. Albumin ensimmäinen radiosingle on “Handle With Care”, esittäjinä Brandon Flowers, Britt Daniel, Dhani Harrison, Jonathan Bates, Wayne Coyne & “Weird Al” Yankovic.
