Leah & the Moonlighters CD Launch Party
Leah and the Moonlighters celebrate the release of their first album on June 27 at 8:30 pm at the legendary local jazz club, Elephant Room. This Austin-grown six-piece jazz/folk/rock band will play songs from the self-titled CD. With one half of the band moonlighting in the Austin Symphony Orchestra and the other half in graduate programs at UT?s Butler School of Music, the group is heavy on talent. Led by Leah Zeger (violin/lead vocals) and Aaron Goldfarb (guitar), the Moonlighters seamlessly combine jazz, folk, and rock styles in a manner befitting of their eclectic hometown of Austin. The hauntingly pure tone of Leah?s voice carries lightly above acoustic strings and dark saxophones, with rich jazz harmonies lurking around every corner.
