The Dennis Brennan Band is currently nominated for Best Ongoing Residency at the Lizard as it begins the fall / winter season of Wednesday nights at The Lizard Lounge. Look for frequent themes woven into their sets such as cities; Memphis, New Orleans, Los Angeles... or a style, Country, Knucklehead Rock, Garage...or a particular songwriter/s, Dan Penn, Goffin/King, Arthur Alexander, Ray Davies, Doug Sahm. In addition the band will mine much of the back catalog mixed in with the new material from the brand new CD INTO THIS WORLD released earlier this month. As the band did last season, special guests open the second set each week with a short set.
Tonights guest: TONIGHT'S GUEST: WISHBONE ZOE
Wishbone Zoe is the auditory/visual avant-indie Neuron Carnival of Saera K, who, based out of Massachusetts, specializes in areas of junkyard rock, crashitybishbash, and the distracted storytelling of important things.
Her show has been described as anti-boring and has been known to both deeply resonate with and/or bamboozle earthlings of all ages. A girl with a normally quiet voice, she traverses our world with a rotating show of humans and coyote-type cynocephaly, or as a one-lady band that has the capacity to create a presence and sound as full and commanding as any three or four-piece.
MORE ON DENNIS BRENNAN.... To the uninitiated, Brennan could be considered Boston's own Leonard Cohen or Elvis Costello. His songwriting is respected by critics and musicians alike. Not only adept with the pen, Dennis Brennan is a highly accomplished performer and is known for his ability to span musical genres, styles, and era's with ease. His emotive and passionate voice is comfortable tackling classic country and R& B as well classic jazz, rock and blues. But it's really Brennan's originals that have set him apart. The Chicago Sun Times described him as "A rootsy, hard-edged rocker with the barroom soul of the pre-Woodstock Graham Parker and the unsparing insight of a working class poet." It's a fitting description if ever there was one. To the initiated faithful who attend every show, Dennis and his band (which includes guitarists Duke Levine, Kevin Barry, Lyle Brewer, and Ian Kennedy on any given night along with the rhythm section of Billy Beard and Richard Gates) have etched so many indelible magical moments on the local collective conscious that they return each week to see what will happen next. . Do not miss your chance to see him... every Wednesday night right in your own back yard. The Dennis Brennan Band performs two sets every Wednesday night starting at 9:15 (8:30 doors). Ticket price may vary from week to week.
