Celebrating the Songs of John Lennon: The Nu-Utopians

7-piece ensemble that celebrates the genius and artistry of John Lennon, one of the greatest songwriters of all time. Created and led by Rex Fowler of Aztec Two-Step and Tom Dean of Devonsquare, the ensemble gives remarkably fresh treatments to Lennon’s Beatles and solo songs that often inspire a whole new appreciation for John’s music.

The Nu-Utopian's CD "Imagined" won the Independent Music Award for Best Tribute Album of 2010.

As a member of WhyHunger's Artists Against Hunger and Poverty, a portion of the band's proceeds will be donated to the organization. For more info: whyhunger.org
