The Midnight Show / Ellen Foley

Show Description

The Midnight Show (led by Joanna Erdos) is known for performing a kind of musical sleight of hand by singing stories of epic heartbreak while fooling her listeners into believing that they are having a good time. The heroines in her songs are far crazier than Amy Winehouse and Syd Barett, but they always have more fun on their way down. It’s the combination of Joanna’s sweaty-sweet alto and her magnificent original music - made up of heart-felt piano-rock - that provide the melodic hooks and lush vocal harmonies which keep admiring crowds singing along. Joanne Erdos recently released her first CD of nine original songs that you need to hear. So come on down on July 23rd and join the drunken choir!

Ellen Foley
, eternally ensconced in rock ‘n’ roll history as The Girl in Meat Loaf’s multi-platinum duet “Paradise by the Dashboard Light,” makes her return to the rock and roll stage at Joes Pub on July 23rd, backed by her new band, The Dirty Old Men. Featured selections will include some of Foley’s gold record singles, plus new material by lead Dirty Old Man, Paul Foglino. She will also perform a bit of “Paradise…”, plus her own version of “Should I Stay or Should I Go?” (long-rumored to have been written about her by Mick Jones of The Clash). Foley followed the success with Meatloaf - as well as back-up stints with such artists as Ian Hunter, Joe Jackson, and Blue Oyster Cult - with three solo albums on Epic. As they prepare their first CD for distribution, Foley and the Dirty Old Men will be making select appearances in the New York area. The Dirty Old Men include Kevin J. Baier(Drums) , Automatic Slim (guitar), Ted Houghton (bass) and leader/songwriter Paul Foglino.
