Big City Bright Lights On Avenue A

There have been underwhelming inquiries as to whether pseudo-intellectual attempted to be pseudo hip by going to a cool bar to hear Ryan Sullivan's kid sister perform last week. The answer is yes. Big City Bright Lights was terrific:
"Big City Bright Lights comes at you with a country twang straight from New York City. Lead vocalist and architect of BCBL - Lindsay Sullivans voice is reminiscent of classic Americana, but specifically Loretta Lynn. In the summer of 2005, THE BIG CITY BRIGHT LIGHTS were born.BCBL is songstress & keyboard player Lindsay Sullivan (formerly of mason dixon), Guitarist Brendan Boehning (Kinetic), Drummer Tim Collins (Michael Leviton among others), Bassist Dan Loomis and Vocalist Ellie Everdell (Legitime). This pop-rock-country-soul-explosion is working day and night to produce songs for your listening pleasure so check 'em out. You wont be disappointed." They will be on the LES at Mo Pitkin's on Ave A and 2nd Street on November 7th. Here's a bit of an audio sample combining Ryan's offer of, "Another beer," with a taste of Big City's hypnotic tune "Wish You Everything." I mixed it with pics from Union Hall, which features a bocce court no less and scenes from Mo Pitkins! BTW, Ryan's dad was there-A great guy and a proud papa. The two of us were at least 25 years older than the next oldest person.

Thanks for coming out, glad you enjoyed yourself and the music. It has been great reconnecting with you and cool to hang out in a setting outside of the usual work stuff...

Hope to see you at Mo's!
