  Tony Scherr Trio [Top Live Show]

A versatile local singer and guitarist shows fresh licks in a new weekly hang.

The trouble with locals who play steady residencies is that regularity can be equated with predictability. But anyone who saw Anton Fier's resurrected Golden Palominos at (Le) Poisson Rouge or the Living Room last month noticed that Tony Scherr is suddenly up on a whole new level. Scherr, still best known for his bass work with Sex Mob and Bill Frisell, sings and plays guitar in his own trio, with Fier on drums and Rob Jost on bass. The unit was broken in and seasoned during an 18-month stint at the Jalopy Theatre. (Those same qualities also describe the sound of Scherr's singing voice.)

If you caught Scherr at the Jalopy - or at least read the glowing reviews - you could still be floored by the blazing slide-guitar leads he pumped into those Palominos sets. If you didn't, now's the time to get acquainted, as Scherr's trio begins a run of six shows in seven weeks at the Living Room.
