8pm- Eve Lesov
Genre: Indie, Alternative
For fans of: Radiohead, Portishead, Bjork, Blonde Redhead, Tori Amos and Depeche Mode
Eve Lesov’s compositions start with Eve and the piano, allowing for the band to unravel the beauty and intricacy of Eve’s songs in thought-through, polished and moving arrangements. The artist applies her various influences in her own music with a grace and skill of a composer, who is not there to settle for cliché chord changes and overused melodies. In her dramatic works the lyrics are profound, seasoned with a longing darkness, intriguing and piercing at the same time. In her entertaining pieces she is brilliantly witty and funny. Prepare to cry and laugh at their live shows, because this band knows how to engage the audience.
“Eve Lesov played an acoustic dub/reggae song that was wonderful” –Vice Magazine
“By far the best and most memorable moment of her performance that night was what happened next. Picking up the guitar, Eve and her band performed a song called “We Are”, which I can’t put into words how incredible of a song it was” –Culture Caffe

10pm-12am George Gilmore
Genre: Folk, Singer/songwriter
For fans of: Nick Lowe, Leonard Cohen, Justin Townes Earle, Kris Kristofferson
This New York City veteran singer/songwriter/guitar slinger has been a mainstay on the Americana/roots-rock scene for over two decades. His latest (I am a Weed) finds him in great form on these (lucky) 13 tunes exploring the journey of life with and without love, accompanied by an able stable of well-known Big Apple players. Tops for me is his gospel-fueled offering “The Good Lord Smote My Eye.”
