Folk / pop singer-songwriter Josh Rouse performs at World Cafe Live tonight. The Nebraska native, who now lives in Spain, is touring behind his recent The Happiness Waltz release. Throughout his career, Rouse has perfected an up-tempo-but-hushed sound that makes his recordings both inviting and intimate. Waltz returns Rouse to his English language roots after 20102s bi-lingual El Turista effort. Tickets and information for tonight's show with Eleni Mandell can be found here . Below, watch his new film [...]
Singer-songwriter Josh Rouse released The Happiness Waltz last week via Yep Roc Records and will perform in Philadelphia at World Cafe Live on April 26th. The Nebraska-born world traveler spent several years living in Spain, his time there heavily influencing his 2010 album El Turista. Ahead of that album's release, French live session producers La ...

The opening night of Harper Simon's free Monday night residency at the Satellite this month lacked nothing for variety and star quality. First, there was the headliner, the son of Paul Simon, doing songs off his forthcoming album "Division Street" (due March 26) and fronting an all-star band that included Rock and Roll Hall of Fame drummer Pete Thomas , the kind of fellow who carries his own gear in and out of a club in Silver Lake. There was a show-stealing outing from Jenny O. , playing songs from her debut "Automechanic." There were harmonies [...]
Tipps für eine Woche voller besserer Musik. Diese Woche mit grosser Geschwisterliebe und geheimen Geschenken. Montag, 28. Januar 2013 Blumenkleid, Choreographien und verliebte Verfolgungsjagden am Strand. Eleni Mandell‘s Clip zu Magic Summertime ist ein kitschiger Sonnenstich. Die Melodie ist aber eingängig, die Frau scheint echt etwas zu können und gegen etwas August im Januar hat hoffentlich keiner etwas anzuwenden. Heute spielt die Musikerin, begleitet von Silvie Lewis, im Zürcher El Lokal. [Im Feed kann dieses Video nicht angezeigt werden. Klicke zum [...]

She's done jazz, rock, country, and even a bit of funk. But now, taking her kids on the road instead of her band, Eleni Mandell speaks to PopMatters about her new album and how it shows her in a new light: completely at ease with who she is ... Once upon a time, a singer-songwriter from Los Angeles named Eleni Mandell dreamed of her Prince Charming. She wrote song after song to him, whoever he might be, as well as songs to other princes she met along the way. When she was in her early 40s and the prince [...]

A great singer-songwriter finally gets signed to a bigger label, and delivers a superb record. Eleni Mandell has always been a beacon of artistic integrity. It would have been easy for her to sell out long ago, with her stunning voice and songwriting chops, but she walks her own path, penning lyrics that are just a bit too biting and/or clever, and holding back just a smidgen when a lesser talent would attempt to blow the roof off the joint. Very inspirational indeed -- and maybe a little crazy. Now,...
Eleni Mandell invites friends in fellow LA bands Lavender Diamond, Los Lobos and The Bird & The Bee to collaborate on her eighth recording...
You could be excused for believing that the land of the singer-songwriter is singularly populated by heartbreak, loss, and introspection. So it comes as a welcome change to find a piece of the West Coast occupied by an artist who seems at one with herself, content and reflective, and using that realization to move forward. LA native Eleni Mandell is a veteran of eight solo albums, the latest of which, I Can See The Future , leaves much of her darker back catalogue behind. The record follows Mandell’s decision to break up with her partner, who appeared less than [...]

RR Eleni Mandell is one of LA’s most dependably great singer songwriters – witty, warm, sensual and sweet. I hear all of that in her latest single, “ Magic Summertime ”, off her album “ I Can See the Future ”. Click here to view the embedded video. It’s classic pop about a romantic love affair that could never work but was fun while it lasted. I love this line especially: “I knew, in my heart, that [...]
