Bob Dylan performed for the first time ever at the White House on Tuesday night along with John Mellencamp, Smokey Robinson and a few other famous friends.
The occasion was for ‘In Performance At The White House: A Celebration of Music From The Civil Rights Movement’.
President and Mrs Obama hosted the event in The White House East Room. The President said, "It was music that was not only inspired by the movement, but gave strength in return. Let this music carry us forth, as one people. As one nation."
