CRITIC’S PICK
Sun., Sept. 20
Robin Trower, Center Stage — The 82-year-old rock guitarist has
dozens of albums in his catalog, but it’s the ‘70s Bridge of Sighs-era
ones that sell tickets. Nonetheless, his more recent releases,
including Come and Find Me (2025), exude the same fluid, bluesy,
Hendrix-drenched reverb-heavy sound that has been his mainstay
since he first gravitated to it after leaving Procol Harum over a half a
century century ago. He’s not chatty or personable, preferring to let
his fingers do the talking in sets that balance recent, old, and obscure
material, keeping established followers and newer fans satiated in a
psychedelic haze of mercury-styled flowing notes. It’s a timeless,
instantly identifiable approach, and with his advanced years, there’s
no guarantee he’ll be touring much longer. — Hal Horowitz
From the venue:
Few would dispute that the title of Robin Trower’s latest album – ‘No More Worlds To Conquer’ – is a fair summary of the thumbprint he has left on the musical universe. But as he reminds us, it should not be misinterpreted as his mission being accomplished. “I definitely feel like I’m still reaching,” he considers, “with the guitar, and the songs, and everything else.”Robin Trower | 09/20/2026 7:30 PM
