Count Basie Center for the Arts presents Enjoy Every Sandwich: The Music of Warren Zevon

(RED BANK, NJ) -- On Thursday, May 23, 2024, the Count Basie Center for the Arts presents Enjoy Every Sandwich: The Music of Warren Zevon. It's been 20 years since the world lost one of its most gifted, respected, and haunted musicians. Warren Zevon bravely battled a rare form of cancer, writing, recording, and performing his music, right up to the last day of his 'Dirty Life and Times'.

Revered by industry peers as a generational songwriter, Warren enjoyed a cult following with limited commercial success. His huge mainstream hits, Werewolves of London and Lawyers, Guns & Money, are a small sample of a vast catalog of music recorded by Linda Ronstadt, the Turtles, Jerry Garcia and the evenings host, Pat Guadagno.

Pat’s cover of Don’t Let Us Get Sick became an international classic when it was featured in Showtime’s award-winning series, Californication.

To honor and celebrate the music of Warren Zevon, Guadagno has assembled an All-Star cast that includes Rock & Roll Hall-of-Famer Vini Lopez, Low Cut Connie’s Adam Weiner and RCA recording artist Jake Thistle. Anyone who has been to one of Guadagno’s musical celebrations, BobFest (Bob Dylan), A Marvelous Night (Van Morrison), or Heart of Saturday Night (Tom Waits) Souvenirs (John Prine), knows to expect a passionate, reverent delivery of the music of Warren Zevon, Mr. Bad Example.

Tickets range from $39-$59 and are available for purchase online.  Doors are at 6:30pm, showtime is 7:30pm. Count Basie Center for the Arts is located at 99 Monmouth Street in Red Bank, New Jersey.
