The event culminated in a group finale of "Fare Thee Well (Dink's Song)"—as did Another Day, Another Time, the 2013 Town Hall concert celebrating the music of the Coen brothers film Inside Llewyn Davis, in which Thile and his fellow Punch Brothers performed (as did Rhiannon Giddens, Lake Street Dive, Conor Oberst, and many others).
