amber Rubarth is an extraordinary singer/songwriter. I’ve written about her many times. Here is the post about her CD Release Party at Joe’s Pub. Last night she headlined the Highline Ballroom and created another exceptional performance (a DVD of the show will be available later this year!).
Highline Ballroom is the biggest stage and room we’ve [...]

New York Sings for Haiti
On most days even compassionate people go about their lives in a near bubble-like existence. The problems of the rest of the world aren’t one’s first thought. Unfortunately, it often takes a tragedy to break us out of that routine and remind us that we are dramatically more alike than we are different, us fragile [...]
ambeR Rubarth, Ian Axel, Greg Holden and Joey Ryan at Tin Angel
ambeR Rubarth is very good about disseminating information about upcoming shows once they’re set. When she tweeted a couple of months ago that she would be appearing in Philadelphia at Tin Angel with Ian Axel, Greg Holden and Joey Ryan on January 22nd, 2010, we grabbed tickets.
A month later ambeR announced that she, Greg and [...]
ambeR Rubarth at NAU NYC
In yesterday’s post I mentioned that ambeR Rubarth had just returned to NYC from a long tour. She didn’t take any time to rest up, following her guest appearance at Alex Berger’s show with a show of her own last night.
Amber was accompanied by Tony Maceli and Adam Christgau, and the three of them performed [...]
Vienna Teng and Alex Wong at Joe’s Pub
We got the briefest taste of Vienna Teng a few months ago when she was a guest performer at ambeR Rubarth’s CD Release Party, also at Joe’s Pub. The minute Vienna announced last night’s show we grabbed tickets (more on that later).
Alex Wong is well-known to us and I’ve written about him a number of [...]
Amber Rubarth and Adam Levy at Jammin Java
If you’ve been here before, you know we’re big fans of ambeR Rubarth both as a solo artist, and as part of The Paper Raincoat. It’s no big surprise that we would try to arrange our schedule to catch one of her shows.
What’s a bit of a surprise was trying to arrange our schedule to [...]
ambeR Rubarth at Rockwood Music Hall
If you’ve read anything I’ve written in the past six months, then you know that Lois and I can’t get enough of ambeR Rubarth, whether she’s playing solo (and releasing amazing solo albums) or doing her part in the incredible duo, The Paper Raincoat. So, when an opportunity arises to see her live, it would [...]
Paper Raincoat at Joe’s Pub
We’ve had the pleasure of seeing The Paper Raincoat perform twice before, and I’ve covered both extensively, the first time at Canal Room and the second at Rockwood Music Hall. You can read those posts here and here, since I will take a different tack in this post, and everything that I said in those [...]
Livestrong Cancer Fundraiser
Music can uplift, connect, and at times, even heal. Last night, we got to experience all three facets, working in unison, and it was a beautiful thing!
While we have attended a large number of shows over the past six years, it was only recently (April 2009 to be exact) that we noticed (and were happily [...]
Paper Raincoat at Rockwood Music Hall
ambeR Rubarth and Alex Wong are two of the hardest working musicians in NYC’s vibrant indie music scene. Each has a number of projects going on simultaneously. They also regularly guest star at local shows with other indie rising stars.
The Paper Raincoat is their collaboration project, an ingenious concept, telling a long-running story (a novel), [...]
