Michael McKean: Folk Musician in New York

About Michael McKean

Michael McKean is a performer whose work moves between acting, comedy, and songwriting, with a parallel life as a working musician. His country-leaning material often arrives with a storyteller’s timing, shaped by years of writing for stage and screen. In New York City, he appears at Town Hall as part of *Loudon Wainwright III: 80th Birthday Jubilee*, sharing the bill with Loudon, Rufus, Martha and Lucy Wainwright Roche, alongside collaborators including John Scofield, Christopher Guest, Judd Apatow, and Joe Henry. His performances favor wit and clear phrasing over spectacle.
