Christopher Guest: Folk Musician in New York

About Christopher Guest

Christopher Guest is an individual performer associated with rock and pop, with a parallel reputation in comedy and character-based performance. In New York City, he appears at Town Hall in the orbit of songwriter-led events, including Loudon Wainwright III’s 80th Birthday Jubilee. His recent stage company points to a collaborative practice, sharing bills with Loudon, Rufus, and Martha Wainwright, Lucy Wainwright Roche, as well as musicians like Joe Henry and John Scofield, and fellow comic-actors such as Judd Apatow and Michael McKean. His work favors dry precision over showmanship.
