STRIKING 12 in NYC…and, of course, Finland.

This just in from The Broadway Blog — “STRIKING 12 Strikes Again”: Their show is an entertaining, one-of-a-kind combo of indie rock concert and touching holiday fairy tale (though secular…the holiday is New Year’s Eve), with enough bah-humbug cynicism and fourth-wall-breaking humor to keep it well out of saccharine territory…It’s a must-see opportunity. – Tom [...]

All of a sudden, Brendan & Val are playing for an hour at the MBar tonight (Tuesday) in Hollywood

Hey folks – something slightly odd has transpired: tonight, Tuesday, November 8, Bren & Val are playing an hour’s worth of our songs at MBar in Hollywood, with a few songs from other people before us. The evening was intended to be a kind of exclusive theatre-oriented open mic night where everybody does one song, [...]

Val & Bren emerging in LA to play live

We’ve been living here now for over 2 years, mostly working at home and going out of town to play music…and we’re itching to start playing out in our new hometown, so we’re going to begin to make it a regular thing. Our first three events: 1) Val has a new solo project with electric [...]

Gene at Carnegie Hall, continuing rest of tour with Audra McDonald

Gene writes: “I am loving touring with Audra … the music is wonderful and the hang is great.  This photo is the trio backstage at Carnegie Hall on 10/22: l-r it’s me, Andy Einhorn (piano, musical director), and Mark Vanderpoel (bass).  It was such a thrill to play a full concert there with Audra, Ted [...]
