SW10 Area Guide

Where Music Meets Memory Written & performed by Karen Cecilia Doorway to Perception asks the audience to consider music as both memory and as part of their own story. Karen Cecilia performs the theremin throughout; a uniquely ethereal, body-responsive instrument that becomes both a musical and symbolic conduit as we journey between sound, story, identity, and political agency. Doorway to Perception asks the audience to consider what music offers us in a time when public expression is increasingly fraught. As political forces attempt to dictate narratives, the act of listening, and of creating, becomes a form of defiance. Each performance includes structured audience participation as Karen tells personal musical memories that become a living part of the work.

Called a “keyboard wizard” by New Yorker Magazine, singer/songwriter/pianist Bob Malone played keyboards for John Fogerty for over a decade, has been a session player for artists such as Ringo Starr while his film & TV work includes The Grinch, NCIS New Orleans, Dr. Phil, Entertainment Tonight and more. His last four albums have been in the Top-10 on the Roots Music Report radio rock and blues charts, #1 on the IBBA UK Blues Chart, and his piano-driven take on Fleetwood Mac's “Oh Well” was still on the SiriusXM Bluesville Top-50 Most Heard chart a year after its release. Bob’s shows feature classic anthems by Fleetwood Mac, The Band, CCR, Bob Dylan and others transformed into foot-stomping displays of keyboard pyrotechnics. MusicRiot UK says “His solo work pulls in elements from classical, soul, blues, rock, funk and jazz into a glorious fusion that’s pure Bob Malone.” This will be Bob’s third appearance at the 606 and therefore, with the utmost of confidence, we can say how truly amazing, indeed spectacular Bob is live – no one can resist his infectious energy, warmth and enthusiasm. 2026 marks the 30 Year Anniversary of Bob's first album, "The Darkest Part of the Night" so the set will feature a bunch of songs from that record, some of which he hasn't played since the 90s! He'll be joined by a standout band-Julian Burdock-guitar, Paul Carmichael-bass & Daniele Antenucci-drums, along with Bob's very own backing singers, "The Malonettes", Trysette Butler & Karen Nash. Don’t miss this incredible performer as he returns to the 606 for his only UK show. "Malone…whacks listeners’ ears to attention with the skill he has honed over a lifetime of playing blues, soul and rock ‘n roll, reminding us that real blues music comes not from the instruments but from the feeling behind each note" Blues Rock Review
