Inwood Art Works: Kevin Delaney & Rich Shemaria in Concert

Inwood Art Works Studio presents an evening of deep lyricism and sublime, musical exploration — featuring Kevin Delaney, a veteran of New York’s post-punk and singer-songwriter scenes; and Rich Shemaria, composer, arranger, and pianist extraordinaire. Kevin and Rich will highlight songs from their High Springs album as well as new tunes (witty, between-song banter may also ensue).

“This album is a thoroughly gorgeous listen … The title track is nothing short of perfection … High Springs, surely, is the work of some of New York’s finest musicians. Don’t sleep on this one!” — The Ark of Music

Limited seating available. First-come, first-served.

Appropriate for young adult and up.
