Tracy Newman in LA July 21 and 22

Two Times the Delight
Tracy Newman Performs at
Genghis Cohen 7/21 &
Songwriter's Square 7/22


Delight one:
Tracy Newman and the Reinforcements at Genghis Cohen this Saturday
Eat some of the best Chinese food around-- and then laugh your dumplings off!
Tracy Newman will perform original acoustic folk songs alongside band mates, the Reinforcements.


Delight two:
Nashville is Coming to LA at Lyric‐Hyperion Theatre & Café this Sunday
Tracy Newman will perform at Songwriter’s Square.
Based on the in‐the‐round seating of venues like the Bluebird Café in Nashville, Songwriter’s Squareoffers a fresh take on the traditional singer/songwriter performance format. Four performers will be seated in the center of the floor with audience members surrounding them on multi‐levels.


"When Tracy Newman took the stage with her band, I was instantly tickled. The band was tight in all the right ways, and lose where it mattered" – Culver City News

“Throughout the show there were laughs and a real connection to the audience.. From Emmy-Award winning television writer (“Cheers”, “The Drew Carry show”, “Ellen”) to accolades and awards for her songs, Tracy is one of those budding stars of songwriting that, for a moment, you’re fooled into thinking she spent her career singing.” – We Ho News
