“Fredette’s delivery is refreshingly direct and expressive throughout; her warm alto conveys the wit and calm of the fully-formed grown-up who knows whereof she sings. The music on ‘No Sad Songs for Me’ will delight anyone who appreciates vocal jazz at its highest level and in its mostconducive setting.”
–Dr. Judith Schlesinger, All About Jazz.com
“No Sad Songs for Me is the apotheosis of the hard-swinging, hip phrasing, and novel repertoire that has made Fredette a favourite vocalist of the cult purists in the Big Apple.”
–Nick Catalano, www.artsandopinion.com
“Vocal jazz at the highest level of execution requires a combination of musicality, timing,
phrasing, creativity and intelligence. Carol Fredette has an abundance of these ingredients, and all they all shine through on ‘No Sad Songs for Me.'”
-Joe Lang, Jersey Jazz
“…she exudes style and substance.”
–Christopher Loudon, Jazz Times
“Carol Fredette’s newest collection of songs is vintage jazz already…I have never heard her sing so radiantly or swing so seamlessly! She is one of the treasures of the music scene, she comes in a multitude of flavors, and I love them all. Like ice cream, I crave Carol Fredette!” –Rex Reed

NYC avant-supergroup GARY LUCAS & GODS AND MONSTERS celebrate their 25th Anniversary with a special concert at Le Poisson Rouge NYC on Fri. June 27th from 8–10pm.
Lucas is renowned worldwide as “one of the best and most original guitarists in America…a modern guitar miracle” (Rolling Stone),
and his band Gods and Monsters have been called “an underground rock fan’s dream team” (The New Yorker).
Their last studio album “The Ordeal of Civility” (Knitting Factory Records) was produced by Jerry Harrison (Talking Heads) and received superlative reviews, including 4 Stars in MOJO.
The band features Lucas on guitars and vocals, plus Ernie Brooks (Modern Lovers) on bass, Billy Ficca (Television) on drums, and Jason Candler (Hungry March Band) on woodwinds.
Sitting in with them will be acoustic guitar goddess Kaki King, Independent Music Award- nominated vocalist Jann Klose, Faith vocalist Felice Rosser, Austrian chanteuse Gisburg, author Mike Edison on theremin, and Israeli choreographer/dancer Mor Mendel.
Lucas formed Gods and Monsters in 1989, based around his guitar prowess and Grammy-nominated songwriting, and Gods and Monsters’ ranks over the years have included folks such as Matthew Sweet, Richard Barone, and most famously, the late great Jeff Buckley.
Lucas co-wrote Jeff’s well-known anthems “Grace” and “Mojo Pin”, and will devote a segment of this Gods and Monsters Silver Anniversary show as a tribute to Jeff, featuring Jann Klose on vocals.

THE PLEASURES OF BEING OUT OF STEP Notes on the Life of Nat Hentoff A film by David L. Lewis Featuring the Sublime Music of Duke Ellington, Miles Davis, John Coltrane and Charles MingusONow Open in New York at IFC Center Opens July 4 in Los Angeles at Laemmle Theatres |
Nat Hentoff is one of the enduring voices of the last 65 years, a writer who championed jazz as an art form and who also led the rise of ‘alternative’ journalism in America. This unique documentary wraps the themes of liberty, identity and free expression around a historical narrative that stretches from the Great Depression to the Patriot Act. At the core of the film are three extraordinary, intimate conversations with Hentoff. Commentary and perspective are offered through additional interviews with such luminaries as Amiri Baraka, Stanley Crouch, Floyd Abrams, Aryeh Neier and Dan Morgenstern. Interwoven through it all is the sublime music of Duke Ellington, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Charles Mingus and Bob Dylan, along with never-before-seen photographs and archival footage of these artists and other cultural figures at the height of their powers. WINNER! Metropolis Grand Jury Prize, DocNYC 2013 “Brisk and engaging. Hentoff comes off as an amused, amusing, endlessly fascinating man, one with more stories to tell than he could have fit into his almost three dozen books or his half-century of columns. He’s a great pleasure to watch, to listen to, and to read, even when you couldn’t disagree with him more.” – Alan Scherstuhl, The Village Voice “A sharp-looking and enjoyable doc that celebrates the writer’s legacy.” For more information, a complete list of playdates and a trailer visit: |

SPEAK EASY
Music from a time when love was for sale, but liquor was not.
This Nightlife Award-winning show is a musical extravaganza that takes us back to a time when flappers, vamps and sheiks were shimmying in gin joints to songs made famous by the likes of Sophie Tucker, Al Jolson, Louis Armstrong, Bessie Smith, and more.
