Artist: LENNY KAYE
Who: Best known as the longtime guitarist, for
more than 50 years, of Patti Smith‘s band.
Track: GOIN’ LOCAL
At 79, and after a zillion years in the music business, Kaye will release
his solo debut album. It’ll land on July 17th. Tracklist and info here.
“I feel like I’m a new artist. I think this album will surprise those
who think they know me from what I’ve done previously.”
TUTV: Well, you’re obviously never too old to put out your debut LP.
Of course, after half a decade playing in Patti Smith’s band, Kaye knows
all the tricks to deliver some good old rock ‘n’ roll buzz.
So far, Kaye has given us 2 previews.
