Ari Gold @ Joe's Pub, NYC, September 4, 2007

Ari Gold @ Joe's Pub, Sept. 4, 2007Ari Gold held his CD pre-release party at Joe's Pub on Tuesday and, based on the size of the crowd, it looked like the show was sold out. I don't listen to a lot of dance/R&B but I was captivated by Ari's live show -- he has an amazing voice and is a great live performer.





Ari's new CD, "Transport Systems", will be released nationwide on October 2nd. The leadoff single, "Where The Music Takes You", is streaming at Ari's MySpace page.


Ari Gold @ Joe's Pub, Sept. 4, 2007The stage at Joe's Pub seemed almost too small to hold Ari. He was in and out of the crowd and, for being a decent sized venue, it was really an intimate performance. My regret is that Joe's Pub has a "No Flash Photos" policy so I missed some great photo ops. These photos really don't do justice to Ari and his band.



Check out Ari's live show and you won't be disappointed. He has one upcoming show in town: Oct 2 2007 @ Splash Bar, NYC 10:00PM.
