NIGHT SONGS AT CONEY ISLAND a stunning spectacle of sight and sound.

Recorded on the summer solstice in June 2022, The Fate of the Tenor documents Sun's working band with bassist Walter Stinson and drummer Matt Honor–a true rarity in modern jazz–on a particularly good night during his residency at Lowlands Bar, where he has performed every Tuesday since September 2021 and continues to perform weekly in 2024.

Folkies, even the ones with a good dose of country in their sound, tend to create quiet, introspective songs that are designed to pack a subtle but no less potent punch. Revered, multi-talented folk-Americana artist Will Kimbrough doesn't quite fit that mold, and it is most evident on the 11 tracks that comprise For the Life of Me.

Having already teased the album with “Boys,” say they share a new taste of Head Body Connector with the irreverent “Wizard Acid,”  a woozy disco track loaded with catchy synths.  The track premiered via Flood Magazine who note, “‘Wizard Acid' (pairs) a tight, funky nu-disco instrumental with lyrics about coming apart at the seams.” 

This cast is professional grade. As an ensemble, they are tight and respond well with each other. I loved watching them all interact and go through the scenes. They kept the dialogue flowing and comical.

Betty Boop is making her stage debut...and thanks to Jasmine Amy Rogers in the role, she’s making a real star turn. I truly didn’t know what to expect when BOOP! THE MUSICAL was announced. How would a cartoon character featured primarily in animated shorts from 1930-1939 make her way into a 2023 musical? The answer ends up being a conventionally plotted, enjoyable visual wonder with some classic big musical numbers. BOOP! THE MUSICAL brings the bops and good vibes.
