Kelseyville >> Roy Zimmerman will bring his guitar and collection of not-so-politically correct songs to perform in concert on Sunday at 7 p.m. at the Unitarian Universalist Community of Lake County / Kelseyville Methodist Church at 3810 Main St.
“This Machine” is 90 minutes of Roy Zimmerman’s comedic, rhyme-intensive original songs. The title is a reference to Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger to be sure, but also an acknowledgement that songwriting does good work in the world.
“Sometimes I think satire is the most hopeful and heartfelt form of expression,” Zimmerman said, “because in calling out the world’s absurdities and laughing in their face, I’m affirming the real possibility of change.”
Zimmerman’s songs have been heard on HBO and Showtime. He’s shared stages with Bill Maher, Robin Williams, Ellen DeGeneres, John Oliver, Kate Clinton and George Carlin. He’s been profiled on NPR’s “All Things Considered,” and he’s a featured blogger for the Huffington Post.
The concert is sponsored by the Unitarian Universalist Community of Lake County.
Tickets cost $20 and can be purchased online at the Unitarian Universalist Community of Lake County website (http://uuclc.org) or Watershed Books in Lakeport.
