FADER TV: Open Bar With Pepi Ginsberg

Pepi Ginsberg arrived a little early to Heathers for her installment of FADER TV’s Open Bar series. She had a band with her, minus a drummer who was out looking for a large cardboard box he could use as a drum. He found one and it was surprisingly loud. They played “The Waterline,” which we wrote about awhile back. Since the release of Red, Ginsberg has reworked much of that album’s material with this new band into long form jammers full of tropical guitar solos. After they were done playing, she did an impression of Bob Dylan, which made sense since her singing already put him in our minds.

We can pretty safely file this one in the Things We Should Have Paid More Attention To folder (thanks to Daniel Arnold for making sure we didn’t overlook this one any longer), because Pepi Ginsberg is making some excellent Joni Mitchell-esque piano folk that also sounds like Dr Dog with a female singer. That’s probably not even a coincidence considering they are on the same label and have done songs (including this one) together. Seriously though, this is music for summer morning subway rides to work and walks in the park, both things that we plan on doing constantly. Happy Times dudes!
