JOHN PLATT'S ON YOUR RADAR

KATE MCDONNELL, THIN LEAR,& NICO PADDEN

Venue: Rockwood Music Hall Stage 3 ( Around the corner from Rockwood 2)

185 Orchard St NYC

Doors open @ 6 pm Showtime: 7 pm - 9 pm

Kate McDonnell plays her guitar "upside down and backward" and sings with her whole being. She has performed solo at the Newport Folk Festival, on Mountain Stage, WXPN’s “World Café” and at The Kennedy Center. Her award-winning songwriting has been singled out for praise by The Village Voice and the Boston Globe.

Thin Lear, the eclectic project of Queens-based songwriter Matt Longo, harkens back to the intricate work of 70's-era studio obsessives. The debut album, Wooden Cave, arrived on EggHunt Records (Lucy Dacus) in July 2020, and received glowing praise from PopMatters (Best Albums of 2020), AllMusic (★★★★), Bandcamp's New & Notable, and KEXP, and was featured on NPR’s New Music

Nico Padden is a one-woman folk-rock riot. Ben Folds said that the title track to her new album Pirate Queen is “original and classic at the same time.” Pirate Queen, which was recorded and mixed by Kevin Kelly, is an album about taking back the crown that is rightfully yours, even if by unorthodox means.

"Music is still playing somewhere in the world...and maybe no music ever dies. It takes to the air and stays aloft, a vibration on the breeze, a dream adrift, always ready to float into another set of ears and implant itself into another living spirit. That's the great miracle of music, this invincible presence that can travel through walls, air and time." (Peter Ames Carlin)
