Rea Curran plays the music of Tom Waits
With his trademark growl, carnival-madman
persona, haunting music, and unforgettable lyrics,
Tom Waits is one of the most revered and critically
acclaimed singer-songwriters alive today.
Notoriously private, Waits has consistently and
deliberately blurred the line between fact and
fiction, public and private personas, until it has
become impossible to delineate between truth and
self-fabricated legend.
Lowside of the Road is the first serious biography to
cut through the myths and make sense of the life
and career of this beloved icon.
Barney Hoskyns is the author of several books
including Across the Great Divide: The Band and
America (1993) and Waiting for the Sun: A Rock and
Roll History of Los Angeles. A former U.S.
correspondent for Mojo, Hoskyns writes for Uncut,
the Observer Music Monthly, and other U.K.
publications. He lives in southwest London.
The Waits talk will be followed by a performance of
great Waits music by sometime Duke Special
collaborator Rea Curran.
