About this event
FITZGERALDS NIGHTCLUB PRESENTS:THE SUITCASE JUNKET seen HERE$20 General Admission Seated // $25/seat reserved tables The Suitcase Junket -- the intriguing songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Matt Lorenz -- weds the sensibilities of early blues and rock n roll, the improvisational spirit of jazz, and his love of Tom Waits to meticulous, cultured songcraft. Dubbed a master of musical imagination by NPRs World Caf Live and astonishing by WBUR Boston, Lorenzs weathered, howl-flecked voice was described by Rochester City Newspaper as a cross between Hound Dog Taylor and a Tuvan throat singer who has swallowed a bird. Lorenz has earned snowballing acclaim for his achingly poetic dark folk. A solitary artist with an organic yet ornate vision, his seventh album To Go On is his most acutely profound yet. Created in the wake of losing his sister, singer-songwriter Kate Lorenz, its a tender, beautiful, and arrestingly moving record; an internal dialogue and conversation with the departed, enormously resonant to anyone who ever loved anyone.
