Tracy Bonham with special guest Tony Scherr

Show Description

Tracy Bonham has continued to make great music and play all over the world for over a decade, although most may know her from her hit single Mother Mother which garnered two Grammy nominations and an MTV Video Award nomination in 1997. With a new record on deck (release TBA) in which Smokey's Roundup plays as backing band (Smokeyhormel.com), Bonham softens the edges yet remains as honest and raw as ever. Maintaining her lyrical humor with an ever evolving musical maturity, she uses her talents as a multi instrumentalist on stage and in the studio.

On March 17, 2008, Grammy nominated producer and New York City singer-songwriter/guitarist/bassist Tony Scherr'sTwist In The Wind, will be released on Sonic Youth drummer Steve Shelley's indie label, Smells Like Records.

Tony Scherr is arguably one of the most in-demand sidemen in New York City with recent recording credits on new albums by Broken Social Scene's Jason Collett, Rufus Wainwright, Norah Jones and Teddy Thompson. His tunes have made their way into indie-rock chanteuse Feist's live sets (and on her breakthrough release, Let It Die), and his performance of Jesse Harris' "You The Queen" landed in Ethan Hawke's film, The Hottest State. To many, he is notably known for his continuing live work with Bill Frisell, Steven Bernstein's Sexmob and Willie Nelson, and as a prolific guitarist and songwriter in his own right, Scherr delivers his most compelling collection of compositions to date on his release, Twist In The Wind.
