SUMMARY:CT Friends of the Performing Arts Presents Tom Freund
DESCRIPTION:“Tom Freund is indeed one of the great singer- songwriters. He constructs a unique world\, defines it\, and then burns it to the ground. Truly unique and absolutely brilliant.” –All Music Guide\n\n\n“It’s the ease with which he delivers conversational lyrics and honeyed melodies\, a natural magic that is the soul of Tom Freund’s music. Though he’s widely-traveled in a variety of genres–from heartfelt folk to buoyant pop to boho jazz to straightforward rock ’n’ roll\, and beyond–Freund is\, simply put\, a singer-songwriter with a defined and captivating presence. Tom Freund\, a New York native whose resume also includes playing bass for the Silos as well as working with Jackson Browne\, Elvis Costello and others\, co-produced the 11-song East Of Lincoln with Sejo Navajas (Vintage Trouble\, Gabrielle Wortman). Longtime buddy Ben Harper contributing to a pair of tracks and Freund is joined by Foo Fighters’ Rami Jaffe and a batch of session luminaries.”\n\n\nHe has a few shows on the books now and is coming to Wilton as a special guest of the CT Friends of the Performing Arts.\n\n\nTickets are $50 and can be purchased at the door or by messaging CTFOPA on Facebook.\n\n\n\n\n	See more related GMW stories...
