Sasquatch 2015 Recap & Photos: Robert Plant Dabbles in Zeppelin, Pays Tribute to BB King

By Johnny Firecloud

Robert Plant & The Sensational Space Shifters represents the latest incarnation of the former Led Zeppelin frontman’s musical vision, and it’s a slippery one.

Transitioning between genres, styles and eras at the 2015 Sasquatch Festival over Memorial Day Weekend, Plant led his band through a remarkably enrapturing set that was highlit by a stunning, haunted rendition of B.B. King’s “The Thrill is Gone,” in tribute to the recently-departed blues legend. Check out a full gallery below.
