The Barnegat branch of the Ocean County Library will host a concert by guitar legend Bill Kirchen at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, December 8.

 

Bill Kirchen (also known as “The Titan of the Telecaster”) was lead guitarist for Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen from 1967 to 1976. Their Top Ten hit “Hot Rod Lincoln” remains a staple of Kirchen’s live shows. Kirchen has worked with other renowned musicians, including Elvis Costello, Bo Diddley, Gene Vincent, Emmylou Harris, Dan Hicks, and Nick Lowe.

 

The concert will feature honky tonk holiday classics as well as Kirchen-penned originals and cover tunes. At the age of 67, Kirchen’s music is more powerful and playful than ever. His energetic performances at the Ocean County Library have captivated audiences who keep coming back for more.
