ONE NIGHT ONLY - SPECIAL THURS SHOWOne of the great pop songbooks of the ‘80s gets handed off to a hard-swinging organ band as saxophonist Cory Weeds marks the release of Hip To Be Square – Plays Huey Lewis & The News, due October 16, 2026 on Cellar Music. The new album brings the music of Huey Lewis & The News back to its roots, stripping away the production’s polish and rebuilding it as greasy soul-jazz.
Weeds, joined by Kansas City organist Chris Hazelton plus guitarist David Rourke and drummer Rudy Petschauer from New York, takes on hits like “Hip to Be Square”, “The Power Of Love”, and “I Want A New Drug”, leaving the melodies intact while remaking them into swinging organ-jazz workouts.
You may know the songs, but you’ve never heard them like this!!!
