SUMMARY:STEVEN KEENE
DESCRIPTION:Steven Keene\nThursday\, September 12\n7 PM\nJoin Americana/Folk musician Steven Keene for a one-night-only performance at Hamilton Stage! A career spanning three decades\, Keene has gained recent notoriety and critical praise for his hit song\, “This World is Your World.” No Depression raves of the track\, “Keene reincarnates [Woody] Guthrie’s most iconic protest original to deliver an anti-authoritarian anthem for a global age….” You won’t want to miss an unforgettable night of singing along to Keene’s catalog of hits as well as honoring some of the most popular protest songs of a generation. \n\nAbout Steven Keene \nKeene grew up in Brooklyn\, New York\, and got his start playing the folk clubs and cafes of the Greenwich Village scene in the late ’80s and early ’90s\, alongside contemporaries like Beck\, Suzanne Vega\, Shawn Colvin\, and others. Heavily inspired by the songwriting of Bob Dylan\, Woody Guthrie\, and Leonard Cohen\, he began performing his earliest material at The Speakeasy\, the now-closed folk club that was a singer-songwriter staple in the ’90s. \nKeene played regularly at joints like Sun Mountain Cafe and The Chameleon\, and for years would crisscross the streets of McDougal and Bleecker\, playing well-known clubs including The Bottom Line\, Lone Star Cafe\, The Mercury Lounge\, The Bitter End\, Arlene’s Grocery\, and the legendary CBGB’s. But for Keene\, it was always about the music\, and never about the fame. Maybe that’s why he surrounded himself with only the best players\, focused only on the music\, and became obsessed with honing his craft as he gigged his way from one smoke-filled Village club to the next. \n+ Special FREE Spirits Tasting By Muckleyeye 6:30PM. Local Colts Neck distillery featuring Vodka\, Gin\, Bourbon\, Rye and Rum. \n \n \nSee all of UCPAC’s Upcoming Events
