As previously reported, The Leisure class performed at The Bell House’s Strength Through Unity a benefit for Haiti on the 27th of Jan. The benefit which also featured Ted Leo, The Walkmen and a number of other various performers was considered a success raising over $35,000.00 for Save the Children and Partners in Health.
I have scoured the internets for media of The Leisure Class from the show and have for once come up with the goods!
A short video and outro of their performance is available to view on youtube, covering the wonderful St. Vincent:
And that’s not all! I’ve also added a batch of exquisite photos from their set. A definite must see for anyone mildly curious of Lauren’s stage presence.
Lauren and The Leisure Class are scheduled to play alongside a whole slew of performers tonight (27th) at The Bell House in Brooklyn, NY as part of Strength through unity a benefit for the victims of the earthquake in Haiti.
Tickets have sold out but a few may be available at the door. 100% of the proceeds will be split between Save The Children and Partners In Health.
No media, to my knowledge has surfaced of Lauren and The Leisure Class’ performance at Joe’s Pub last week, but apparently the group performed earlier that week on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day at the Lion’s Den in Berkshire.
Youtube user ruralintel has thankfully shared a short but sweet video of what seemed like a charming performance! Here’s hoping more than a few sporadic live shows come from this project. It’d be downright cruel for them not to.
Tomorrow Lauren is set to take the stage with The Leisure Class at Joe’s Pub so naturally, New York Magazine online featured Lauren in the Daily Intel. A brief profile and set of 21 shortfire questions. I’ve added the piece to our press archive so you can avoid the cesspool that is NYMag’s comment section.
Which do you prefer, the old Times Square or the new Times Square?
Really, what do I know from the old Times Square? But I guess I will say old. But really old – like the thirties.
A belated Happy New Year to all laurenambrose.org visitors!
As the subject headline leads, Lauren is set to take the stage at Joe’s Pub with The Leisure Class once more.
The upcoming show is scheduled on January 21at at 9:30 PM. Tickets are still available and can be purchased directly from the Public Theatre.
We have some Leisure Class related media for you this update. – Thanks to the wonderful Lecia for bringing to my attention not one, but two videos of Lauren visibly having a ball at her previous performance at Joe’s Pub on November last year.
The second video, New York I Love You can be viewed on YouTube. And that’s not all! ReverbNation have a song titled, Don’t Think Twice available to stream (for free) at their dedicated page.
If any additional media is released, you can be sure we will cover all we possibly can!
