NOW AVAILABLE DIGITALLY:
ROBERT BANNON: REWIND – LIVE IN CONCERT AT THE GREEN ROOM 42
(New York, NY) Friday, October 27, 2023 – SNL actor, talk show host of ‘The Roundtable’, and cabaret star, Robert Bannon has released his new album “Rewind – Live in Concert at the Green Room 42”. The album is available digitally on all platforms.
Recorded live in front of a sold-out crowd at New York City’s The Green Room 42 on October 22nd, 2022, Rewind is directed by Robbie Rozelle, and featuring Yasuhiko Fukuoka on piano, David Cinquegrana on guitar, Simon Fishburn on drums, and Wesley Bourland on bass. The concert was written by Bannon and Rozelle, with music direction and arrangements by Fukuoka.
The album “Rewind – Live in Concert at The Green Room 42” is produced by Robbie Rozelle, Yasuhiko Fukuoka and Robert Bannon. Engineered by Sheridan Glover, the album is mixed and mastered by Yasuhiko Fukuoka.
“Rewind” possesses the excitement and banter of Bannon’s personality while adding his “Powerhouse Vocals” by Broadway World. Throughout the jam-packed 60 minutes of music are his tales of Italian/Irish heritage, his parent’s love and support, and his queer flare. The album leads with songs by icons Elton John, Dolly Parton, Liza Minnelli, Whitney Houston, Barry Manilow, and more. In addition, a mashup of the Harry Chapin classic “Cats In The Cradle” with Bannon’s Pride Anthem “I Think He Knew.”
Bannon released “Unfinished Business” which debuted at the Top of the Amazon A/C Chart in 2021, his most personal show yet. Now “Rewind” brings along his journey growing up in Ridgefield Park, NJ; while tackling the discovery of his love for music (all things Manilow), figuring out a first date, a crippling illness that distanced him from art, and discovering that all roads no doubt lead to home. This love letter expresses the joy of starting all over again, never giving up, and Jersey.
