She (Eleni Mandell) is just great
by vipo on 8/5/15Mercury Lounge - New YorkWe heard her in Montreal at the Jazz Festival many years ago. Whenever we listen to her music it catches something that is melancholic and uplifting at the same time. She calls her music 'kissing music" but she downplays the wonderful valuable experiences of life she is capable to catch in her songs, the moments of an afternoon trenched in light and love, the smell of dirty fingers, the appreciation of being ridiculously normal. Eleni uses her great voice to bring you to places you never went before and you want to visit over and over again. A wonderful very intimate (small audience) experience.
