With lyrics like, "I wrote this song in a paper bag," Ezra Furman drew a crowd to Schuba's last Saturday night. The Evanston native, who completed a residency at Schubas with then-band Ezra Furman and The Harpoons in 2008, is touring in support of his new solo album The Year Of No Returning, released in February. Notorious for his quirky tendencies and rambling lyrics, Furman's fervent, imaginative storytelling is complimented by playful musicianship.
