PHIL HENRY http://www.philhenryband.com/wordpress AWARD-WINNING CINEMATIC STORY-SONG TROUBADOUR Thu, 19 Apr 2012 14:14:32 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.5 The Upshot of Studio Organizing http://www.philhenryband.com/wordpress/?p=658 http://www.philhenryband.com/wordpress/?p=658#comments Thu, 19 Apr 2012 14:14:32 +0000 phil http://www.philhenryband.com/wordpress/?p=658 Hi, All!

I’m painting and organizing the music studio in my house… One advantage: I keep finding stuff I had forgotten about.

Like this:

01 Come Together

It’s a recording of The Beatles’ “Come Together” that I made in 2006, when I was playing a John Lennon Tribute show (with a tone of other great artists, including Maurizio and Sirsy). It’s done with a baritone electric guitar, a minimum of percussion, but a maximum of slap-back delay.

Download and enjoy!

A quick correction- Tomorrow’s gig at The Cottage in Lake Placid actually starts at 9pm, not 7:30pm.

Also, Wayne Davison will not be joining us tomorrow on sax. (Half our audience is usually Wayne fans, so this might be some very bad news!)

So:

Tonight, 7:30-10:30pm – Bistro at Mirror Lake Inn
Lake Placid, NY
Solo show

Saturday, 9pm-11pm – The Cottage at Mirror Lake Inn
Lake Placid, NY
Duo with Gary Moon

Hope to see you!
Phil

My six year-old niece Catherine recently remarked that I sing “songs about things that are difficult.”  Doesn’t that sum it up nicely?  That’s going in my press kit, for sure.

What’s NOT difficult is catching a Phil Henry live show this month.  Especially as we cross over into Labor Day weekend, we’ll be EVERYWHERE.  By “we”, a rotating cast of my favorite musicians, which includes singer-songwriter/percussionist Gary Moon, multi-instrumentalist Jeff Kimball, and Wayne Davison on sax. 

We’ll be playing restaurants, a historic hall, a bookstore, festivals, a community garden party, and an art fair.  I even have an in-the-round set at the legendary Club Passim in Cambridge, MA!

See you soon?
