New Crooner Jam from Jon DeRosa

A lof of my earliest musical influences stem from my parents record collection and my light tinkering with piano lessons, so it’s no surprise to me that a barroom crooner like Jon DeRosa would almost immediately strike my fancy.  He’s got a voice that will make the ladies swoon and the men jealous; it also doesn’t hurt that he’s worked with my hero Stephin Merritt either.  This new single encapsulates Jon’s experience working behind a bar, looking out into those darkened corners of the room as smoke billows from the patrons mouths.  Might not be an every day listen, but definitely a hit in my book.
