David Yazbek
"Remarkably Well-Crafted Images That Startle But Please"

TOUR DATES SET FOR MAY, INCLUDING JOE'S PUB IN NY, WORLD CAF LIVE IN PA, BENEFIT CONCERT FOR RIVERKEEPER

“A dark, often troubling collection of songs, 'Evil Monkey Man' is full of rage and feelings of loss..."edgy" only begins to describe it..."

Rock/pop artist David Yazbek has confirmed an initial round of tour dates in support of his acclaimed CD, 'Evil Monkey Man.' On May 20th, Yazbek will appear in concert at World Caf Live in Philadelphia. On May 22nd, he will do a Benefit for Riverkeeper, with special guest Nellie McKay and other surprises (the Benefit will take place at Riverspace in Nyack, NY.) Yazbek and His Warmest Regards will play Joe's Pub in New York City on May 30th.

All upcoming concerts will feature songs from the new CD, which has been universally praised for its “remarkably well-crafted images" and “dark, often troubling" songs. When Yazbek presented the material at Lincoln Center a few weeks ago, The New York Times called the show “A Woozy Thrill Ride on a Volcano's Edge," and raved: “The songwriter David Yazbek is a daredevil juggler catching spiked pins in the traveling carnival of his imagination."
