Kevin Devine opens Madison Theatre's Fall 2012 season

The Madison Theatre opens its second season with a concert featuring singer-songwriter Kevin Devine, with special guest Rich Albergo, Wednesday, Sept. 26, at 8 p.m.

With a musical repertoire that spans the spectrum from hushed finger-picked narratives to bombastic rockers, Devine is one of those rare talents who straddles multiple genres and feels equally at home in each. Whether he’s playing solo to hundreds of his devotees in a cramped New York City club, joining friends on stage at Lollapalooza or touring with artists varying from Rachel Yamagata to Brand New, Devine’s songs enrapture a diverse set of ears. Born and raised in New York and currently living in Brooklyn, Devine has been quietly honing his craft since the release of his first album in 2002.

Tickets are $20; available at (516) 678-5000 ext. 7715 or www.madisontheatreny.org.
