Dan Kirouac brings McCartney music program to Lunenburg library

Westminster resident Dan Kirouac will debut a new music program at 6 p.m. Sept. 4 at the Lunenburg Public Library. The program, titled “The Music of McCartney: The World’s Most Successful Songwriter,” will explore Paul McCartney’s musical journey, according to a community announcement.

Kirouac will discuss McCartney’s music as he developed his songwriting through the 1960s with the Beatles and beyond, and his influences, including his father, a jazz musician in the 1920s/30s, as well as his incorporation of those sounds of ballroom and dance-hall big bands in his music, to his successes as a pop and rock performer in Wings and as a solo musician. The listener will relive a wide spectrum of musical styles covered over Sir Paul’s 65-year career.
