Eli Paperboy Reed and The True Loves have an album, Come and Get It,  due to drop in August but they were at The Bell House (which although it’s actually in Gowanus, I consider part of the neighborhood) Saturday night.  It was hot and sweaty in part due to the intensity of the band and in part due to the lack of intensity of The Bell House’s A/C.  You can read a further review at Now I’ve Heard Everything by clicking here.

Leslie Mendelson has been one of my favorite musicians over the past few years, but she has been on a performing hiatus since the end of 2009.  That break is now over and Leslie will be playing The Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2 (also know as the Rockwood Colosseum) again tonight at 8pm.  If you haven’t heard or heard of Leslie, she plays piano and sings with a great pop sensibility.  You’ll find all the details over at Now I’ve Heard Everything.
