Current mood:  naughty
today the Deli Magazine in NYC ran a review of "My Prom" on the front of their site. Here's the link: the Deli Magazine some of you may know that I'm a really big fan of Dion, so I'm thrilled to get compared to him...as well as Screamin' Jay and a certain Presley character.here's what it says:
One of the first things that strike me about Ladyfingers is just to what extent lead vocalist and songwriter Adam Weiner can sing. Listening to "My Prom," several times I had to double check that there is only one singer on this album, because Weiner manages to variously channel Elvis, Screaming Jay Hawkins, and Dion with incredible ease and fluidity. Somehow, through all this polyvalence he still manages to have his own voice. The vocal shadings are tailored perfectly to each song on the album, where pieces range from Tom Waits-influenced polkas to drunkenly heavy minor blues and raucous banjo-driven country punk. The Tom Waits influence is underscored by the appearance of bass clarinetist Colin Stetson – who has played on several of Waits's albums – on the track "Real Live Boy." - Handlebar Jack
