City Winery is partnering with New York-Tokyo to host a benefit show on March 31st to benefit those displaced by the earthquake and tsunami.

Please support this effort if you can. Tickets are as follows: Bar Stools $45.00, Reserved Tables $55.00, Reserved Best Tables $55.00 and VIP Tables $65.00.

Paula Cole: Feelin' Love [ Purchase ] There's really no other song that so embodies the feeling of lust to me than this Paula Cole track does. It embodies it and manages to make you feel the sinful feeling at the same time. In the song she talks about how a certain man makes her feel and the fantasies she has about him. It's extremely sexy. Lust was considered a sin apparently because when we feel lust it is impossible to have room in our hearts [...]
Filed under: Video , The Hit List , Television A TV show's theme song has always been an integral part of the viewing experience. But now that classic openings like ' All in the Family ' and ' Cheers ' are gone, more and more full-time rock bands have had their songs featured on the small screen. In celebration of the fall TV season, [...]
Before starlets Florence Welch and Marina & the Diamonds there was a vocalist more powerful and yet such a delicacy and treasure to stumble upon. Most remember Paula Cole from the damn track that opened each episode of Dawson's Creek . Let us collectively erase that from our mind and start anew. This Fire , Cole's 1996 album is one of the powerful records to date. If you're unfamilair listen to Mississippi here . Cole's fifth studio album, Ithaca , is scheduled to [...]
Paula Cole returns to the straight-ahead uptempo piano pop playing field once more after her ambitious 2007 "comeback" album Courage took her to slightly new territory with jazz producer Bobby Colomby. New September 21 album Ithaca (Decca) promises a more tightly focused production lens and lead track "Music In Me" is a dramatic example, building from strings and stuttered percussive beginnings to a grand-scale, soaring anthem. Classic Cole. Paula Cole - "Music [...]
It's hard to believe that singer/songwriter Paula Cole hasn't had a charting single since 1999, but that's the truth. her last charting single was 1999's " I Believe In Love " off of her album Amen . Granted, #112 isn't anything spectacular, considering " Where Have All The Cowboys Gone " hit #8 and " I Don't Want To Wait " peaked at #11 but still. Where has this talented lady been hiding? Ok, OK. [...]
Aimee Mann, Ben Gibbard and Annie Clark at the Summerstage 2010 Gala Photo : Jon Klemm On Tuesday of last week ( June 8 ), the 25th Anniversary season of Summerstage officially kicked off with an all-star benefit featuring the music of Simon and Garfunkel .

Dar Williams and Stephen Kellogg sang "We've Got a Groovy Thing Goin' [...]

Mrs. Big Geez and I seldom disagree - or to put it another way, I'm afraid of her. But when we do have a rare difference of opinion, it's usually about something silly like the best version of a particular song. A good example would be a tune that hit the top of the charts over fifty years ago for two different performers. One of those guys was a singer who enjoyed decades of success in pop and country music, with countless hits to his credit. That would be Sonny James, a member of the Country Music [...]
Remember Katharine McPhee? Not the post- American Idol pop princess that so many (including myself) dismissed, but the vivacious brunette with the big voice who wowed us with her original audition of "God Bless The Child." Well, she's not a brunette anymore, but she's still got that voice and this time around she's put it to very good use. Her sophomore album Unbroken was released in January, and features an excellent mix of infectious pop melodies and singer-songwriter acoustics. Katharine co-wrote several of the songs with such talented singer-songwriters as Paula Cole, Ingrid Michaelson, Jason Reeves, and [...]
She might be better known today for her flamboyant style, plastic surgery excesses and dumb blond stage persona, but before she became a pop-culture caricature, Dolly Parton was a tremendous singer, under-rated songwriter and country music ambassador to the world. By the age of 13, Parton had already been signed to a label and appeared at the Grand Ole Opry and was well on her way to being dubbed the "Queen of Country Music". To date, she has 25 number-one singles and a record 41 top-10 country albums. Along with classics like "Coat of [...]

As a child of the eighties, I grew up with a popcultural impression of Dolly Parton as a rhinestone MILF, the ditzy blond of 9 to 5 and Islands in the Stream , famous for being famous. When my father passed me her 2001 folk/bluegrass album Little Sparrow , which mixes her own originals with several great and surprising covers, I was startled to find myself a fan of the album, more than merely appreciative of the sweet longing in her clear, delicate performance, but I figured it [...]
Kristy Hanson Find any songwriter and ask them why they write and they'll undoubtedly say it's something that's in their blood; something as automatic as drawing breath. But to be a songwriter and to pursue it as your career is probably one of the most challenging professions out there. It's not enough to simply write your songs. One has to promote their music. Perform on stage. Raise funds for album releases. Essentially, earning a living as a songwriter is so much more than writing a song. In the case of Kristy Hanson , [...]
Εχθες είχα πάει στα γενεθλια της κοπέλας ενός εκ των κολλητών μου. Ρε πουστη ου αν είναι δυνατόν, συφυλιαστηκα ασχημα όταν δεν ηρθαν οι φιλες της. Σε κατι τετοιες καταστασεις δεν μπορώ να συγκρατηθω, αλλά πριν πώ τη μαλακία μου ο υπευθυνος του μαγαζιού της εβαλε χερι γιατι είμασταν λιγοι,7 από τους 18. OK, ο πειραιώτης μαγαζατορας (Destiny you know) δεν χανει ευκαιρία για να ανoιξει ένα μπουκαλι ακόμη, έστω και ας ενωσει δυο παρέες, χαβαλέ θα έχει. Αλλά αμα βλέπατε εκφραση στο προσωπο της. Και μας φερναι μια Γ¨Λυκειου. Ε, εγινε της τατιανας από το [...]

I'm a little late to come to the Panda Bear train. But, boy am I glad I hopped on board. Love their Beach Boys meets Jim James sound. Also, any song that features a bird call in the beginning is a winner in my book. Listen: Panda Bear ~ Bros (Album Version) (12:30) RIYL: Eats, Shoots and Leaves Bonus bird call song: Paula Cole ~ Mississippi (5:10) More: Jaw Droppers What makes your jaw [...]
There is more backstory to this release than just about any that has come along in 2007. But all that baggage has no affect on the music; so I will skip it. Overall, a softer, calmer album than her break-out release "This Fire". Everything you love about Paula is here. Track by track mini-analysis: 1 ~ Comin' Down A welcome back to the music industry song that sets the tone for the remaining songs. 2 ~ Lovelight This song could have been released in 1985. The synth-line, the [...]
