Poet in New York

Keith James and Rick Foot celebrate New York’s abundant musical and poetic history with a concert of unique and evocative music featuring material by Leonard Cohen, Federico Garcia Lorca, Bob Dylan, Suzanne Vega, and Pablo Neruda and Vladimir Nabokov.
 
This extraordinary literary challenge was offered to Keith and Rick following the success of their acclaimed 2007 Lorca album which generated over 100 concert appearances.

Based on the title of Lorca’s famous book of poems written about New York in 1929, which documents his impressions and experiences, this chilling concert exposes the fear, fascination and vulnerability that a fragile and creative person often feels when confronted with somewhere as unsettling as NYC.
