Eddie Vedder is taking part in an all-star tribute show next month honoring late actor Leslie Jordan.
“Reportin’ For Duty: A Tribute to Leslie Jordan” is set for February 19 at the Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville. Tickets for the event go on sale on January 13 at 10 AM at AXS.com.
In addition to Vedder, a number of country music’s biggest names are booked for the tribute show. Among them are Maren Morris, Brothers Osborne, Ashley McBryde, Lukas Nelson and more. Many actors will also be making appearances at the event. So far, the list of actors includes Mayim Bialik, Max Greenfield, Margaret Cho, Paul Reubens and many more.
Vedder may seem like an unusual booking for this tribute to Jordan. However, the Pearl Jam frontman appeared on Jordan’s 2021 gospel/country album Company’s Comin’. The two dueted on the song “The One Who Hideth Me,” which can be heard below.
Jordan died in October at age 67 after suffering injuries from a car accident in Los Angeles. He was best known for his roles in Will & Grace, the American Horror Story franchise and Call Me Kat.
