Photo Coverage: Buster Poindexter Returns to Cafe Carlyle

As a founding member of the New York Dolls and in a prolific solo career, David Johansen has been a seminal force in rock and roll, influencing countless singers and bands to this day. Buster Poindexter, Johansen's celebrated alter ego showcases his elegant crooning through R&B ballads. As Poindexter, his previous engagements at the Café have been sellouts and he's become one of the most revered artists to grace the Café, with TheaterMania calling his Café show "one of the most satisfying musical acts you're likely to encounter in New York," adding "this show is hot." In what continues to become a Café tradition, the audience favorite returned to Café Carlyle for a two-week residency last night and BroadwayWorld was there.

Buster Poindexter February 10-21, including a special Valentine's Day performance on February 14..

At the Carlyle, Poindexter (vocals, harmonica) will be joined by Brian Koonin (guitar), Clifford Carter (piano), Richard Hammond (upright bass) and Ray Grappone (drums).
