Celebrating a Legend - An Evening With Linda Thompson

Tuesday night we celebrated the forthcoming release of Linda Thompson’s new album ‘Versatile Heart’ at the Bowery Hotel, the elegant new hotel that recently opened on the Bowery.

L-R - Shore Fire's Matt Hanks, Anthony DeCurtis, George Kalogerakis, Linda Thompson and grandson Zak.


Guest enjoyed hors d’eurves and cocktails while listening to the soothing sounds of Linda’s new record. Following the cocktail reception we made our way to the extravagant fireplace room where Rolling Stone scribe and Shore Fire friend Anthony DeCurtis led a Q&A with the folk-rock legend. Linda was charming and funny as she answered questions about her new album, recording with her family, her collaborations with Rufus Wainwright and Antony. After the Q&A we were delighted with a performance by Linda’s grandson Zak on the guitar. At 12 years old, Zak bowled over the audience with his skills, guess somethings run in the family (Zak’s grandfather is Richard Thompson).
