Stephen Lynch | Free Download | ‘Tattoo’ on the New Lion Album
Today, festival producer (Clusterf*ck show) Kelly Dwyer caught Stephen Lynch in the studio at SiriusXM with Mark Says Hi. “The record is really awesome,” she said of Lynch’s new “Lion” album. Surely his fans are very excited about his new songs and the tour he’s currently on, but we here at NY Funny Songs Fest are especially thrilled to see that Stephen is putting out new music, because it just reminds us that the NY Funny Songs Festival is as timely as ever. Don’t forget to check out our schedule and grab some tickets if you haven’t already! All shows are $10 except for the Weird Al Field Trip.
While you’re grabbin’ stuff, why not nab a free download off Stephen’s website here. You can catch the man himself at Gramercy Theater tonight and tomorrow (May 3 + 4) in NYC.
We’ll be there too, so if you happen to spot us, please say hi!
