Being a DJ I tend to get fairly focused on the music i spin. I listen to various forms of electronic dance music almost exclusively. At home, in the car, at work, etc. This mostly happens because I'm always listening for new things, always seeing what I can learn from listening to other DJs, listening to new tracks, etc. As a result, when i get a chance to listen to something different I jump at the chance.
Sunday night I got to see this group of singers who go by the name Live From New York. It is Teddy Goldstein, Anne Heaton, Sam Shaber, , and Edie Carey. (Amazingly, they all have web sites made from their names!). These folks are amazing. I can't get enough of them. I've seen all of them solo and a number of them together, but never all at once. Their styles all compliment each other quite wonderfully. The high point of the show for me was when they all did a round of singing each others songs. Teddy played two of my favorite songs by him, "Lucky in Love" and "Will you be my widow" (At least that's what I'm calling it, I'm not sure what it is actually called). The other song I was really psyched to hear was "El Dorado" by Sam Shaber. Whenever I hear that song on the radio (okay, so I don't ALWAYS listen to electronic music in the car) I can't help but sing along. Anyways, you should check out all their web sites. They all have songs you can download.
It's almost 8am and my pager keeps going off. Ugs. I hate being on call. Thank god my week is over once I get into work.
