Pete Yorn, La Zona Rosa, July 13, 2009

Pete Yorn put on a great show at La Zona Rosa on Monday night. Playing songs from his new album, Back and Fourth, Yorn definitely showed his sensitive side. He strummed the acoustic guitar for the entire regular set, only switching to electric during the encore. He also pleased the crowd with old tunes, mostly from his popular 2001 debut “musicforthemorningafter.” And he did a fun cover with crowd sing-a-long of New Order’s “Bizarre Love Triangle.”

I’ve been following Yorn on Twitter (@peteyorn). He definitely treats his > 500,000 followers to interesting tidbits and questions, some promotional stuff, a good example of engaging fans with social media.
