Richard Barone is an acclaimed recording artist, performer, producer, and author. He pioneered the indie rock scene in Hoboken as frontman for The Bongos and Rolling Stone described his first solo album, cool blue halo, as 'chamber rock', helping give rise to the popular genre. In the last few years he has collaborated with Sean Lennon, Donovan, Lou Reed, and Pete Seeger. He's coming to the Caffe Lena to celebrate the release of a brand new album, Sorrows & Promises: Downtown New York In The 1960s, which casts a new light on the songs that sprang from the singer-songwriters in and around Greenwich Village during that pivotal decade. While the Top 40 hit songs were being churned out uptown, the downtown writers were weaving folk, blues, R&B and rock into songs that still sound fresh and inventive. Richard's selection ranges from Buddy Holly, who was living and demoing songs in his Greenwich Village apartment just before he died, to up-and-comers like Paul Simon, John Sebastian and James Taylor (of The Flying Machine), to the artists redefining folk music -- Bob Dylan, Phil Ochs, Tim Hardin, Fred Neil.
