Bruce Forman's Junkyard Duo
Join us in welcoming Bruce Forman back to The Cherry for an encore performance on Friday, July 7th at 5:00pm. This past May, his one-man stage play The Red Guitar was a sold-out hit. This time around, scavenging music from the edge of sound, his Junkyard Duo will use unique instrumentation and exotic sounds to create a spontaneous and intimate exploration of styles and approaches. Partnering with Bruce for this show is Jake Reed--drummer, percussionist and soundscaper extraordiaire! Hobo chic at its utmost!
