Cracked Actor Returns to Amagansett

At the Stephen Talkhouse
By

Cracked Actor, a band that has performed the music of David Bowie since the shape-shifting musician’s death in January 2016, will reassemble on Tuesday at 8 p.m. at the Stephen Talkhouse in Amagansett. The group, which has featured musicians from various South Fork bands as well as the film composer Carter Burwell, plans to perform Bowie’s 1970 album “The Man Who Sold the World” in its entirety, along with several of his best-known songs.   

The group is the brainchild of Carlos Lama and Peter Landi, who worked at Innersleeve Records in Amagansett at the time of Bowie’s death and assembled a band that delivered its debut performance just five days later. In its present iteration, Cracked Actor also includes Jack Marshall on guitar, Kevin Foran on bass, and Christopher Walsh, a senior writer at The Star, on guitar and piano. Guest performers may jump on stage for a song or two.
