From reports I've heard, the music was great at yesterday's Fall edition of the
Hoboken Arts & Music Festival. And the weather was beautiful too, aside from occasional wind gusts that blew over exhibitors' stuff. No rain, at least.

I only managed to watch a couple of sets (and hear parts of others in passing), but liked what I heard. Hoboken's own
The Fave had the crowd rocking, and I came across an unexpected pleasure on the second stage: a sultry young singer named Emily Turonis, who was accompanied by a standup bass player and a guitarist. Though she was singing in the afternoon at a street festival, her voice made me feel as if I was in a smoky nightclub.
(The Cliffview Pilot has a
recap of a number of the Festival's performances, including Richard Barone, and photos.)

I missed the 12 Noon set by
Care Bears on Fire, but the band told me they've got some upcoming dates in New York, including one at the
CMJ Music Festival.
