Program

Back by popular demand, acclaimed singer-songwriter and celebrated actor John Gallagher Jr. returns as part of the Renée Fleming VOICES series—this time performing with a band.

The show is part of Gallagher’s national tour in conjunction with his third album, Goodbye or Something, releasing on June 28 by Grand Phony Music.

Composed entirely by Gallagher, the 11 original tracks that make up Goodbye or Something are the artist’s reflection on lost love, the power of music, familial bonds, and a good meal to see us through. The album was recorded at Studio G in Brooklyn, NY, and features Gallagher on vocals and guitar along with Zach Jones (drums, percussion), Oscar Albis Rodriguez (guitars, piano, keys), Chris Cubeta (harmonium), Hannah Winkler (vocals), and Todd Caldwell (Hammond B3).

Watch the music video for the title track and first single/video.
