The last time the True Groove All Stars performed was a more than memorable gig at the Blue Note last year, but this one promises to be even better. Not only does Marla Mase have an excellent new album just released but latest True Groove signee James Chance will be there. Shout for “I Don’t Want Nobody To Give Me Nothing”. On Tuesday at the Cutting room
Monday – The Les Paul Trio featuring Edgar Winter – Iridium – The other brother, this should be a strange mix.
Monday – Cat Power – MHOW – Solo and in a club much smaller and better than T5 (where I saw her last)
Wednesday – Ellie Goulding – Theater At MSG – Last time I saw her, Ellie was opening for Katy Perry. A superstar in the UK, the pop star is doing pretty well in the US as well.
Wednesday – Lorde – Roseland – So this is where I go to check out last years model and say goodbye to one of the worst clubs in the world.
Sunday – Louis Armstrong Tribute – Expect “Hello Dolly” and “When The Saints Go Marching In” but ask for “Gully Low Blues
