Karlus Trapp

The other day, we walked into this pub called The Red Lion in the West Village. I've been there before and already knew that you get to listen to some pretty decent live bands there. Of course, Bleecker Street is THE street if you want good music and good (=cheap!!) drinks all in one place, in my opinion. Some of the pubs in the area have been music venues for artists like Neil Young, Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Wonder, for example. Back in the day, I mean. When the flower child ruled, and it was all sex, drugs and rock-n-roll.

The day we went, there was this musician called Karlus Trapp playing. Originally from Staten Island, his blues-pop-rock mix was easy on the ears, and he did some pretty good covers too.

Give him a listen - you may like what you hear.
