… That’s what I’ll be singing Saturday, April 16th around 7:30pm at Beanberry’s Cafe in my own hometown of New Rochelle, NY. Come join me for the extremely rare 2011 Kevin Haden performance. I’ll be joined by the two lovelies, Asuka Fu (piano) and Tiffany Chang (percussion). If that’s not enough incentive I might be moved to break out a new song or two from the upcoming “Volume II” (2012).

So I’m taking a short break from performing for the next few months, mainly because I’ll be focusing on getting things rolling with the next album. Estimated release? Sometime in 2012. Don’t worry. It’ll be worth the wait

SInce I’m only doing two shows at UnWINEd this month, I’m going to hold off on themes until next month.  Tonight’s show will feature the usual, orginal songs and my favorite covers.  I might even sing a new tune or two…

I need a little more structure in my life, so I’ve decided to theme my Saturday night shows at UnWINEd.  I’m planning to change the theme every month so even my most faithful fans will have something new to look forward to on a regular basis.  I’d love to jump into some less obvious themes right away like “blue” or “handstands” or “dung beetles”, but it’s probably smarter to start simple. Don’t worry, I’ll save “Tracy Chapman” and “Bill Withers” for later since I’ve been doing that show for the past year . Well without further ado, June’s theme is …

One Motown Selection from Each Decade (1950′s to 2000′s)!

Settle down. Settle down…  Of course life tends to be more comfortable with at least a little consistency, and I wouldn’t want to be responsible for anyone’s anxiety attack (because I know some of you sleep like little kids on Christmas Eve every Friday night in anticipation of my show the following day, right?  Right? …),  so I’ll be confining the themed portion of the evenings to one short set, probably starting no earlier than 10 o’clock.  You’ll still be able to enjoy a steady rotation of my original songs, favorite covers, and duets with Mike Clifford.  So never fear!

I’ll take your suggestions now… That’s not to say I’ll actually follow them (It’s the jerk in me.)

No performance tomorrow at UnWINEd.  It will be closed for a private function.  I’ll be back next week.  Also, I’ll be performing in Mt. Kisco next Wednesday (11/18) and Peekskill next Sunday (11/22).  Check the tour page for details.

Playing at North Star with Tiff again this Wednesday.  Should be a jolly good time.

God bless the 80's.

Leave your vote here as a comment. I’m not kidding.

UnWINEd at Symphony Space is located on the corner of 95th & Broadway in Manhattan.  The party starts at 9pm and goes until we get tired.  Mike and I will be singing our faces off as usual.  No cover charge.  Costumes encouraged.

See you there!
