March: A Rufus-Retro-Wainwright-Spective: "Unfollow the Rules" Part 2

“Unfollow the Rules” : From “Only the People that Love” to “Alone Time”

There is the full studio version of these songs on the album and a live version with string quartet from the Paramour Session, and now an even more stripped-down version of these songs. I love constantly changing the way these songs are heard and performed. Every great painter makes studies for their paintings and this is one of these studies that hopefully contains everything that the mature songs have. Hear song-writing and producing in the making. Our living room is where most of these songs were written. Where on my first and second album, I was yearning to transform into Icarus, to travel to Grey Gardens, to escape to Barcelona, to wander on 5th avenue in flip flops, with “Unfollow the Rules'' I have arrived home, artistically and physically in a space that gives peace. After 18 shows I feel we all have a bit of a right to say that we came “home”. I hope you enjoyed the journey and feel it was a homecoming for you as well.

All streams will be available for rewatch for one month after the livestream event.
