Today: Boyd Lee Dunlop


This afternoon, the 86 year old Boyd Lee Dunlop will be holding a matinee CD release show at Hallwalls Contemporary Arts Center for his second album, The Lake Reflections

This pianist has an interesting story behind him, including a more than near death experience. Just last year, he was in a nursing home when his first album was released which brought him into the national spot light. Shortly after the release and celebration of that CD however, Dunlop suffered a heart attack in which he was actually dead for several minutes before being revived.

That's part of what makes The Lake Reflections such a unique album. The other aspect that makes this collection of solo piano songs so incredible is the recording process behind them. Dunlop looked at a series photos of Lake Erie and played what the pictures made him feel. 

The show starts at 2. Tickets are $15 for general admission, $12 for students/seniors and $10 dollars for members.
