Redheaded Friend

Robert Burke Warren's Redheaded Friend is a song cycle with selections of spoken word based on RBW's unconventional and largely unsupervised childhood in 1970s post-Civil Rights Act Atlanta. Fatherless, he searches for fellowship and courage in a story of latchkey kids, southern belles, and thrift store cross dressers. RBW performs the entire show solo.

Robert Burke Warren is a writer, performer, and musician. His prose appears in Salon, Hippocampus, Paste, the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and The Bitter Southerner, among others; hes ghost written for Gregg Allman, penned award-winning liner notes, and his music appears in movies and TV, and on albums by Rosanne Cash, RuPaul, and rockabilly queen Wanda Jackson. His debut novel, Perfectly Broken, is now in paperback. In the mid 90s, he portrayed Buddy Holly in the West End musical Buddy: the Buddy Holly Story. Prior to that he traveled the world as a rock & roll bass player.
