I took this photo last weekend in chelsea market. The gentleman’s energy was contagious and he had everyone stopped still in their tracks. You couldn’t help but stop and smile at this little boy, so captivated. I wish I knew the background of this man- he was so talented and so much fun to watch
I can’t stop dancing around my apartment and this time it’s thanks to a crew of human trees and sparkly silver mini dresses. Charlene Kaye’s new single Animal Love I dropped with a trippy cool video to match last week over at Glamour.com and the video is directed by none other than Liann Kaye (the younger half of this genetic musical win-fall). Check out the video for Animal Love I and then head over to Glamour magazine to read the whole interview with Liann and Charlene.
Charlene’s playing in NYC on March 30th at Rockwood Music Hall… 7pm. Seeyathere.
Randomly enough I get my music suggestions from American Vogue. Somehow knowing that it was printed in ink, well in advance of the date it landed in my hands, makes me feel like there must be something enduring about their suggestions. And I’m rarely led astray… (cue collegiate obsession with Vampire Weekend. Not sorry.) So when last month’s issue lauded a 15 year old with a crazy powerful voice I ended up here, her dark and beautiful cover of Bon Iver. And then I blasted it over and over again in my apartment. I suggest you do the same.
