A celebration of two iconic and prolific songwriters: John Lennon and Harry Nilsson. In 1973, years after the Beatles broke up, Lennon finds himself in Los Angeles and spends the next 18 months making music (and mischief) with his pal, American singer/songwriter, Harry Nilsson; a period of time Lennon refers to as the Lost Weekend. This show explores their individual catalogs, the impact they had on each other’s work, their collaborative efforts during this period and shares the stories that inspired these unique songwriters. Lennon & Nilsson features Brian Chartrand (Live from Laurel Canyon, The Sweet Remains, James & Joni) as narrator and vocalist, Otto D’Agnolo (“Becoming Lennon”) as vocalist and guitarist, Todd Chuba (drums), Lamar Gaines (keys), Adam Armijo (electric guitar) and Mario Mendivil (bass).
