OCPP Presents

Roy Zimmerman "Live from the Starving Ear"

I congratulate Roy Zimmerman on reintroducing literacy to comedy songs. And the rhymes actually rhyme, they don't just 'rhyne.'

-- Tom Lehrer

Roy's lyrics move beyond poetry and achieve perfection.

-- Joni Mitchell

Join Master of Ceremonies Carl Wolfson, host of "Carl in the Morning" on AM 620 KPOJ, as he introduces Roy Zimmerman on June 22.

Roy brings his latest political and hilarious folk music act "Live from the Starving Ear" to Portland to benefit OCPP.

For over 20 years, Roy has poked fun at ignorance, war and greed.

Roy's wickedly inventive satirical songs have appeared on HBO, Showtime and on NPR's "All Things Considered."
