John Lurie and the Lounge Lizards perform music from Get Shorty, Down by Law, Stranger Than Paradise, Fishing with John and additional material... Filmmaker, musician, actor, composer, philospher. Lounge Lizard leader John Lurie has been called all these things and it is true that he is exceedingly accomplished in said fields. None however should outshadow the fact that, in concert, Lurie is one hell of a performer. He has provided the music and starred in the Jim Jarmusch classics "Down by Law" and "Stranger Than Paradise" as well as Wayne Wang's "Blue in the Face". To each of these he has lent the cool variations of virtuosic jazz that have made the Lounge Lizards a worldwide sensation. Most recently, he did the same for Barry Sonnenfeld's satire of Hollywood scheming in, "Get Shorty" and in his own series of "travel shows" on "Fishing with John" in an episodic investigation of sport, adventure, and comraderie featuring Matt Dillon, Tom Waits, and Dennis Hopper.
