LPR Presents WHY?

About this event

Yoni Wolf was at war with himself. As he reached middle age, he was beset by questions that had plagued him for years. Why was life so difficult and lonely? When would the happy part of him take the steering wheel? Far from wallowing, he leaned into the dark and the light, asking how and when real change was possible. Of course, transformation wasn’t a foreign concept to WHY?, the mercurial project that’s housed much of Wolf’s neuroses and restless creativity since the late ‘90s. This time, the two sides of a man became the basis for a new album split in half, at times diametrically opposed. WHY?’s ninth album, Oh Golly Yes Lord, airs all of Wolf’s baggage while asking how a person resolves their different selves. “The album is not a flattering look at my life, but that’s not the point,” Wolf asserts. “This is warts-and-all stuff. I’m always striving for honesty in WHY?, but Oh Golly Yes Lord is particularly revealing.”
