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’.
A generational songwriter, revered by industry peers, 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 that has been recorded by Linda Ronstadt, the Turtles, Jackson Browne, Bruce Springsteen, Jerry Garcia and the evenings host, Pat Guadagno.
Pat’s recording of Zevon’s 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, Award winning singer-songwriter-activist Arlan Feiles 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), Leonard Cohen (Hallelujah) knows to expect a passionate, reverent delivery of the music of Warren Zevon, Mr. Bad Example.
