Clara Lofaro, 2012
...A year and a half ago, I wrote my first live review of Clara Lofaro...and my life changed, literally.
here is that review; http://streetcredmusic.blogspot.com/2011/04/american-songstress-clara-lofaro.html
In subsequent articles I mentioned how close to being the next 'Pop Star' to come out of the New York City club scene CLo was. Well we are there man, we are there!!! I say we because there is nobody rooting harder for this wonderful woman than me.
Hard working, dedicated, focused, and just spreading love and that mile wide smile everywhere she goes. Donating to worthy causes, especially woman's rights, Japan, and world hunger, you have to be in her corner!
Speaking of that smile...'Just Smile' her video hit single from her CD 'Clara Lofaro' just passed 100,000 hits on youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyRgt527oL4
From the first few bars I heard at Clara's live review, I knew one thing, her music was deep, there was more to it than Pop. There were haunting melodic lines, hard felt lyrics and a construction that said 'listen to me!'
Here is what I mean: One of CLo's compositions 'Wrinkled $' ...that tells a story of it's own...put to dance, enjoy...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMfqidX5U-I
***************
On Tuesday, May 29th, Vanity Fair will launch a world wide ad campaign featuring,
'Just Smile' CLo's single. In addition her self titled CD which is getting major play in California and Pennsylvania, will be picked up by more and more stations.
Remember I said hard working; CLo is also currently being featured in my documentary film 'StreetcredMusic', shooting a music video, AND will tour Europe in July and August!
...your next chance to see Clara, live in NYC is June 13th, at 'The Canal Room'...we will be filming that show, so come down and let CLo win you over...
So starting Tuesday keep your eyes and ears open and you will hear music that WILL make you smile.
....and remember, "I told you so"
GET OUT support Indie Artists!

Solitaire Miles Live Recording Session...
What a great way to start off the Memorial Day weekend...Friday night at Saturn Studios for the 'live' recording session for Solitaire Miles' new album.
Great music, some food, great guest list, all in all a wonderful event.
Solitaire performed two sets about an hour each, filled with 'swing' tunes from as far back as the thirties.
'What's Your Story, Mornin Glory' one of my favorites was done to perfection.
Solitaire teamed up with bassist, Marlene Rosenberg to do one of the classics that they now 'own'..
"Stars Fell on Alabama"..http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eHcJaUkjwzU
...the evening seemed to fly by, as the tunes rolled out from this experienced, talented group that Solitaire has put together..Dave Gordon, piano, Marlene Rosenberg, bass, Brian Gephart, sax, and Jack Gallagher, bass trumpet..
here are some photos; Studio owner and pianist Dave Gordon's 1927 Steinway.
....Brian Gephart, sax...Jack Gallagher, trumpet..
Solitaire, Marlene Rosenberg, bass!!
....two great 'jazzettes' Marlene and Solitaire!
http://marlenemusic.com/
The album is still untitled, but I call it 'Timeless'...
Solitaire told me there will be more of these live recording events coming, I'll keep you posted!!

Solitaire Miles, Dave Gordon..A Unique Recording Session
I am really excited to be invited to a rare event these days, a 'live' recording session, done in a studio with a live audience! On Friday May 25th, jazz vocalist, and one of the few ladies around today who can 'swing it' the way it was meant to be, Solitaire Miles will be recording her new album.
This exciting event will be at pianist Dave Gordon's Saturn Studio, 1620 Payne Street, Evanston, IL.
Friday May 25th at 8 PM.
There will be two sets, one at 8 and one at 10 PM with a one hour intermission at 9 PM.
"I am really looking forward to recording with a live audience present.
The audience is such a huge part of how we make the music because we
are playing for them and how they react to what we are doing helps us
create each song. It's fun to record in the studio alone, but it's
never as fun as when there are real, live people there, listening and
reacting to what we do, it really pushes us farther as artists and
performers. I think this next record is going to be a killer because of
that dynamic. We don't have a title for it yet, because we have to
wait and see what unfolds during the session, and that depends a lot on
our audience"
****************
Dave Gordon, will be at the keys. Dave has been a Chicago jazz staple for years, and I've seen him several times with Solitaire, he is a true percussionist, I love watching him.
Marlene Rosenberg, will be on bass. No explanation needed here, she is one of the best. Marlene and Solitaire are just wonderful together!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eHcJaUkjwzU
Saxophonist Brian Gephart, another one of Chicago's leading jazz artists will also join Solitaire
for this truly 'All Star' recording session.
Jack Gallagher, bass trumpet, will add his smooth sound to this wonderful assemblage of Chicago jazz greats....I can't wait to hear this wonderful group!!
...so if you can not be at Saturn Studio, in Evanston, this Friday...you can hear the session via U stream... http://www.ustream.tv/channel/solitaire-miles-quintet
enjoy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9c-nYcT1qno&feature=relmfu
See you next Friday!!
