Quadron: Favorite Star




I'm posting two versions of Danish (currently Los Angeles based) duo Quadron's song "Favorite Star" from their second album 'Avalanche' released May 31. Both are excellent, but I prefer the performance recorded by Danish Radio P3: Vocalist Coco seems more relaxed, more herself, more 'in the zone'. Ultimately however, as with everything, it's a matter of personal taste. Both versions by the way feature outstanding work on the bass, electric and stand up, respectively, by Thomas Drayton.

On Saturday July 27 Coco will be performing as part of the annual SummerStage event series at Rumsey Playfield in Central Park, NYC (enter at 69th Street/5th Avenue). Also in the line up: Lianne La Havas, LP, and DJ Center. The rain-or-shine 7-10 pm concert is FREE.

NOTE: As usual, Coco will be on stage with her regular band of merry men which does not include musical partner Robin who prefers studio settings to live shows.
