In a dramatic Phantom of the Opera-style entrance, legendary bassist John Paul Jones emerged from beneath the stage, commanding a pipe organ with a powerful rendition of “Your Time Is Gonna Come.” The magic didn’t stop there—Jones took fans on an unforgettable journey through Led Zeppelin’s catalog, seamlessly transitioning between instruments. He played “No Quarter” on piano, delivered a haunting lap steel guitar version of “When the Levee Breaks,” poured his soul into “Since I’ve Been Loving You” on piano, and brought out the mandolin for a beautiful take on “Going to California.”

This masterful display of musicianship reminded everyone why Jones is still one of rock’s most revered figures. Fans were left in awe, soaking in a rare musical experience from the Rock & Roll Hall of Famer.

Jones is set to perform again at the festival, collaborating with Finnish cellist Anssi Karttunen and former Sonic Youth guitarist Thurston Moore. His last full concert was in 2019 with his project Sons of Chipotle, but he made memorable appearances in 2022, reviving Them Crooked Vultures alongside Dave Grohl and Josh Homme for Taylor Hawkins tribute shows.

Big Ears Festival witnessed a legend at work, proving once more that John Paul Jones remains an unstoppable force in the world of rock and roll.

Just aching verses written for the woman whose eyes held stories deeper than time. Each lyric was a whispered vow, a cry, a confession — not of joy, but of helpless devotion. It wasn’t just a love song. It was Dylan’s soul unraveling — an artist realizing that sometimes, the more you love someone, the more they slip through your fingers.
