Wild Honey Presents: Rob Laufer, Tommy Keene, & Nick Guzman-Autism Think Tank Benefit
WIld Honey Foundation presents an afternoon with our brilliant musical director Rob Laufer, longtime Wild Honey collaborator, Tommy Keene (a standout at our Hollies, Kinks, Beatles, Big Star shows), and Wild Honey standout singer Nick Guzman.
Rob Laufer is a singer songwriter who has written, sung and produced countless songs for movies, TV and commercials. He's worked with Frank Black, George Martin, Fiona Apple, Johnny Cash, Cheap Trick, Dirk Hamilton, Shawn Colvin and many others. He serves as music director for Wild Honey, a nonprofit organization that produces concerts to benefit autism treatment and research. Rob has released 5 albums. He appeared as a member of the fabled "Wrecking Crew" in the recent Brian Wilson bio-pic "Love and Mercy". Roblaufermusic.com
Tommy Keene tommykeene.com After nearly 30 years in the music business, you might expect someone like Tommy Keene to start slowing down. If you did, youd be wrong. Produced by Tommy in his home studio, with able assistance again from R. Walt Vincent (Pete Yorn), Tommys new Behind The Parade (Second Motion) continues his career-long run of premier, melodic guitar-based rock, following up 2009s stellar In The Late Bright with yet another batch of winning tunes.
Ranging from the proto-Keene jangle of Already Made Up Your Mind and the edgy, power pop (no, he doesnt mind that description much) storytelling of Running For Your Life and His Mothers Son to the moody, ambient instrumental La Castana and the horn-infused opener Deep Six Saturday, Behind The Parade finds Tommy ably taking a few risks while managing to play to his considerable strengths. Behind The Parade, along with his recent output, shows Tommy is akin to an athlete rediscovering his prime-only in his case, he never left it.
