John Mayer and One Republic Coming to TWC
The Time Warner Cable Pavilion will welcome John Mayer on August 27. One Republic will open.
Be on the lookout for John’s backup guitarist. He’s black and stands stage left. A few years ago he wore a baseball hat pulled down over his eyes, and did spins in a couple of songs. He is none other than David Ryan Harris, the former frontman of the 90’s rock/funk band Follow For Now, which used to play in local clubs (like The Brewery) frequently. After FFN disbanded Harris produced a CD by a friend of his in Arrested Development, Dionne Farris. That CD, “Wild Seed-Wild Flower” featured the hit single “I Know”, which reached Billboard’s #4 spot in 1995. (“I know what you’re doin’….yeah” 101 played it a lot). The CD features David’s guitar work.
Nobody appreciates John Mayer more than John Mayer, so David’s on stage and can entertain anyone bothered by that.
