“While disappointed that we are unable to present Dan live at the Congregational Church of Huntington, as planned, on November 7, we are delighted that he will be performing for us via livestream from his home in California that evening,” said Michael Kornfeld, president of the FMSH board of directors. “Unlike our concerts at the church, there is no admission fee for this online one. However, like other musicians, Dan has had most of his gigs cancelled, is unable to tour now and would appreciate donations via his online tip jar while you are viewing the concert.”

Dan Navarro has written, sung, played and acted his way through a rich and varied career for more than 30 years — and he’s poured his heart and soul into his music.

It was as a songwriter that Dan Navarro started his career, mostly in collaboration with Eric Lowen, for artists as diverse as Pat Benatar (the best-selling Grammy-nominated classic “We Belong”), The Bangles, Jackson Browne, Dave Edmunds, Keb’ Mo’, The Tempatations, Dionne Warwick, and many more.

Throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, Dan recorded and toured with Lowen in the acclaimed acoustic duo Lowen & Navarro that released 12 albums prior to Eric’s retirement in 2009. Dan has since transitioned into a growing solo career — usually touring nearly 100 dates annually across the U.S. His latest album, Shed My Skin, was released in 2019.

“This is Deeper Than the Skin.”

The presentation begins with a song followed by another song … that moves into a poem and then an invitation.

This is not just an evening of talk.

This is not just a concert of songs that just entertain.

Deeper Than the Skin is an experience of singing and listening – of experiencing a connection so deep that it makes you laugh, smile, cry and reconsider what you know about our history. It’s an invitation to open your heart and your mind to a story of shared humanity that resonates with your own.

Two friends… one Black, one White… one from the North… one from the South! Musicians, storytellers, students of history and world travelers, born three days apart! Two separate narratives forged into one powerful friendship aimed at finding common ground and helping others to do the same.

Deeper Than the Skin brings together a remarkable journey that started 30 years ago and is now offering hope to people all over the nation. It’s a presentation that ends with an open dialogue that moves the audience from emotion into action – that gives voice and direction to the question “What can I do?”

Deeper Than the Skin is an interactive, engaging invitation to take a step into a new reality. It’s an affirmation of the notion that a more perfect union begins… with us!

Reggie Harris and Greg Greenway have a unique story. Born three days apart, ancestry flowing through the same portal of history – Richmond, Virginia – they are on a pilgrimage together – one that began three decades ago. The racial divisions that are the reality of America started them in two different worlds, but the amazing bonds of music, respect, admiration and shared vision have brought them together as friends and colleagues.
