Live performance by Clare and the Reasons
 
As bandleader Clare describes her ensemble's highly scientific approach to music-making, "First, Clare writes songs.Then she brings them to the Reasons' test lab. There, the songs are submitted to a series of intense treatments and tests until they become what some people call: "lush and sinfully beautiful". This process named in the scientific community "Reasonitis Polymorpheus Synthesis" or RPS, lead to the making of "The Movie" (Frogstand Records) their debut album. (no known side effects. FDA approval pending)." WFMU listeners heard the grand result of this "Reasonitis Polymorpheus Synthesis" as Clare and the Reasons played live.

Alright, Rickie Lee Jones! I saw Thalia Zedek play last night, which was a treat. If possible, can you play something from Liars & Prayers?

Hate to point this out, Irene, but shouldn't that be "Lacrymosa" instead of "Lacymosa"? (It's the English major in me...)
