Johanna of Yonkers stopped in to the Listening Room today and I'm still searching for my socks. Wow! What a voice.
Here's the thing, most people who come in love music and love to play and love the whole singer-songwriter bit. I get it.
But very few of the artists drip joy when they sing. When you [...]

More later, but I found Michelle's performance really touching.
In fact, I almost cried in the studio … I am such a jackass … but it's true. I swear. Tears.
Check out the show for yourself.

Yup … that's Diana Costello and myself at the Pleasantville Music Festival last weekend, where we helped handout the Listening Room compilation CD and glad handed the crowd.
It was great.

Michelle DeAngelis of Yonkers stopped into The Listening Room yesterday and dropped some power pop on our heads. It was one of my typical book-and-book operations where we weren't sure what we were getting until Michelle walked in.
