Leaves Of Green: 01-25-12

by David Holland

A day after hanging out in the Lower East Side to see Anya Skidan perform, I was back to see a show. This time I was heading to Cake Shop to check out the duo Leaves Of Green. I was looking forward to their set after seeing them for the first time only a few weeks earlier at Piano’s.

I was once again highly impressed by the performance of 20 year old singer-songwriter James Madole & his partner in crime Justin Krim on guitar. They masterfully went through an 8 song set filled with strong vocals, nice acoustic tones & solid sonic sounds from Justin. Some of the highlights included Broken Blue, Lincoln Center, Recovery & my personal favorite East 4th.

These guys are definitely a treat to see & I look forward to their upcoming show at Piano’s on February 20th. So if you are in or around NYC that night, come on down for a great set!
