It's just Brooke Fox and her guitar
on-stage at the Trash Bar. She won't be needing anything else. Her
voice will always be enough. Like other singer-songwriters, she'll
cover Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah"; but Brooke's is the
rare voice that matches the song's lyrical transcendence. And she
has the ability to showcase it right out of the gate, nailing ever
higher notes in her first song. That's the pattern Brooke wisely
employs in her originals: In chorus, she selects a phrase to repeat,
and with every utterance her voice ascends and soars on a talent
rarely seen even in New York City. (She'll never encounter a note
she can't hit or even top by an octave or two.) So seek her out.
You'll never forget her vocal power.
