For singer-songwriter Seán Barna Macri Park is more than those simple descriptors. His second album and Kill Rock Stars debut An Evening at Macri Park is his tribute to it s community his scene and a time in his life when it was the center of his world. A self-described semi-professional musician since he was 14 Barna played drums for Deaf West Theatre s Los Angeles production of Spring Awakening and on the national Broadway tour for The Producers but it took a trip to Berlin s Club Legarré and it s English-speaking open mic to find his own voice as a songwriter and performer. His new album is a collection of stories vulnerable and openhearted of his New York. In his words It s a character study of the bar itself. It s a safe space but there s alcohol drugs sadness and your own demons. Recorded in Rochester Seán wrote late into the night as producer [producer!] and his kids slept. Moving fast Macri Park became the center of a song cycle documenting giddiness grief history and everything in-between. He enlisted friends including Counting Crows Adam Duritz and David Immerglück harpist and songwriter Mikaela Davis Danielle Ponder and Maria Taylor to bring his world to life.
