MAHWAH, NJ — The Mahwah Museum will host “Les Paul's 110th Birthday Celebration Tribute Concert” this Saturday at Ramapo College of New Jersey’s H-Wing Auditorium.

The event runs from 2-5 p.m.

"This exciting event honors Mahwah’s own legendary innovator and music icon, Les Paul, whose groundbreaking inventions and artistry forever changed the landscape of music," organizers said.

The concert will feature three acts: DnA, Ed Laub Quartet, and Tom and Sandy Doyle, celebrating LesPaul’s enduring legacy.

Tom Doyle was "Les Paul's right-hand man of over 45 years," organizers note.
