| Perdomo Kravitz |
Fernando Perdomo has two new projects (projects which overlap), and last night at Kulak's Woodshed performed material from both. These, of course, are in addition to his
Clouds project (which is an album of new material every month this year), his rock opera (which apparently is finished), Broken Sound, his work with Marshall Crenshaw, his new David Bowie tribute, and all the artists he's producing. This man is a force. And a joyful force at that. For these projects he's teamed up with Andy Kravitz, a drummer and producer who's also fairly busy. You've certainly heard his work, with Todd Rundgren (both he and Fernando sported Todd Rundgren shirts last night), David Bromberg, Juliana Hatfield, Imogen Heap and many others. Well, last night Perdomo Kravitz (the first of the two new projects) kicked off the show with "Canyon Trilogy," which is made up of "Meet Me Down On Love Street," "Harmonics And True Love," and "I'm Free." Then Kaitlin Wolfberg joined them on violin for "The First Day Of Fall" and "I'm No Fun." Lots of great new songs! Vocalist Broadway B then performed a few of his own original songs solo on piano. After that, we were treated to the full band performance of Perdomo Kravitz, including "Free From The Me" and "Goodbye Sun". Fernando then playfully asked those of us in the audience to close our eyes for ten seconds. When we opened them, the band was now The SOUL (standing for Sound Of Unstoppable Love), with Broadway B on vocals, along with Fernando Perdomo, Andy Kravitz, Kaitlin Wolfberg, Michael Collins, and Keith Hosmer. One of my favorite songs of the night was "I Want A Girl With A Record Collection," a song with a delightful reference to Record Store Day (which is coming up in a few weeks). "Who I Really Am" was also outstanding. I am looking forward to the release of these new albums. This show should be available to watch online on the Kulak's Woodshed YouTube channel, so be sure to look for it. In the meantime, here are a few photos:
