  • “The Living Sisters: Run For Cover”

    Charming covers from a retro four-piece.

    The Living Sisters follow up their acclaimed 2010 album Love yo Live with a modest release in this EP of six cover tunes. Retro remains the order of the day as the four singers -- Inara George, Becky Stark, Eleni Mandell and new member Alex Lilly -- blend doo wop harmonies and country, folk and jazz touches across songs both expected (Patsy Cline’s “A Poor Man’s Roses (Or a Rich Man’s Gold))” and decidedly less…

  • “Pixie Geldof: rocking 20s style”

    The youngest Geldof girl tries out the latest trends and talks family, fashion and her band, Violet

    When Pixie Geldof's band started getting written about last year, several journalists reported that the band name, Violet, was the middle name of the famous lead singer, which is not true. The name Violet was, as it happens, taken in homage to the Hole song of that name; Pixie Geldof's middle name is, technically, Pixie. (Her full name is Little Pixie Geldof. Take a moment.)

  • “1950s-style singer takes stage at Colonial Inn in Concord”

    Janice Dompke describes herself as “an ’80s girl,” but that’s only in reference to her age, not her musical proclivities. Though she was raised in the 1980s, the Berkshires-based vocalist has always loved singing the tunes of the 1930s and 1940s, and more recently added the ’50s and ’60s to her repertoire. On Nov. 10, Dompke will appear for the first time at Concord’s Colonial Inn, along with the Workingman’s Band, to perform a musical tribute to rock and pop icons of the 1950s and 1960s including Patsy Cline, Peggy Lee, the Shirelles, and Etta James.
