Following the official release of his “I KNOW MORE NOW” CD on February 21, award-winning actor and cabaret singer BRIAN De LORENZO will dazzle Greater Boston audiences with music from his new album and some past favorites, at a concert on Wednesday, March 18 at Harvard Square’s OBERON
Accompanied by Doug Hammer on piano, Brian will perform songs from the new CD as well as songs from his first CD, “Found Treasures,” with selections by Marvin Hamlisch, Diane Warren, Johnny Mercer, Rodgers & Hammerstein, Pasek & Paul, Shaiman & Wittman, William Finn, and others.
'Nearly 20 years after my first recording, I realized I had songs in the corners of my mind begging me to record them,” says De Lorenzo.
“So in early 2019, I said to myself, 'I'm going to take these songs to my friend and collaborator Doug Hammer, and we’ll record them in his studio and see what comes of it.”
'A genuinely exciting aspect of this CD is in the history of the material.
I’m the first singer to record the beautiful “Every Morning (Mary)” which I first heard appearing in the New England premiere of Moby Dick: An American Opera, in 2001.
My character didn’t get to sing it, but I fell in love with it and have performed it many times since.
I’m extremely grateful for the inspiring songs of David Friedman; this recording includes three of his works.'
According to De Lorenzo, the CD title comes from a line in 'No More', from Marvin Hamlisch and David Zippel's 'The Goodbye Girl.' “It’s appropriate, because, after 20 more years of simply being alive, I do know more now...”
