"Viscerally thrilling alto: a rich gusher of sound that emerges...like a full-on blast from the past."
-Adam Feldman, Time Out New York
Molly Pope, the new-old-school-diva, throws back to the golden days of radio with The Hazard Gunpowder Melody Magazine, a half hour of pre-WWII songs, skits and scandal. Named a Village Voice "Best of NYC 2011" for Best Singer To Turn Life Into A Cabaret, Ms. Pope lends her powerhouse alto to a set of classics from the Great American Songbook that helped shape and define her signature retro style. Expect the inevitable surprise guest, witty banter and excessive product placement of classic radio shows like The Kraft Music Hall and The Bell Telephone Hour. "Brought to you by" the semi-fictional Hazard Gunpowder Company, the Melody Magazine is Molly Pope at her old-timey best.

I caught her show at Don't Tell Mama, and I *had* to see it a second time. She's got a great voice, beautiful stage presence, is a great all-around entertainer, she's funny, risqué, has a fantastic voice, and..her choices of songs were just great. Unexpected, terrific interpretations of songs you'd never have expected to hear them as she sang them. Do NOT miss this!
