So glad to have fantastic vocalist Paula Byrne return to the lounge! Paula Byrne's voice is like chilled champagne on a hot summer day.

Barbara Lusch Duet is at Wilf's

“Rock Me Sweet” is Barbara’s third album, and represents a new avenue of musical exploration for her as well as for the audience. It has a profound beauty that is at times sweet, at times sorrowful, and at other times playful and seductive. It can console, and evoke nostalgia. Enhancing her performance are the arrangements of warm strings, simmering percussion, plaintive horns, and piquant keyboards. It’s a lush setting that perfectly complements the tales contained therein of toxic love, self-imprisonment, liberation, broken dreams and hope.
