Lilli Cooper, Adam Kantor and Morgan James will join singer/songwriter Jeremy Schonfeld for a concert celebrating the release of his concept album, Iron & Coal, to be held at Joe’s Pub on February 6 at 9:30pm. John Clancy (drums), Richard Hammond (bass), Matt Beck (guitars, keyboard), and Ben Butler (guitar), currently playing for Spider-Man Turn Off the Dark will also be featured.

Iron & Coal is a semi-autobiographical rock theatrical song cycle that’s an intimate musical journey through the Holocaust’s lingering emotional wounds on a survivor and his son.

In addition to selections from the new album, the concert will feature songs from Schonfeld’s previously released 37 Notebooks, Blue Skies & All, and Drift, as well as previously unreleased originals and material from forthcoming projects.

Schonfeld is the first American composer-in-residence with Broadway in South Africa. In addition, he has contributed original music for numerous benefit concerts including Defying Inequality, The Pink Campaign on Broadway, and Broadway for a New America, among others.
