We first saw Gabriel Kahane live after booking him at our CMJ Gothamist House show earlier this year. He sat behind a keyboard, rather than his typical piano, and charmed the room with unique pop sentiments (and a song with lyrics taken from Craigslist missed connections). NYMag recently wondered how the classically trained musician, and his troupe of like-minded friends, are remaking the pop genre. With a just-released self-titled debut now under his belt (expect "string quartets juxtaposed with strummy strum folk songs, brass chorales right beside jangly piano pop"), Kahane seems to be on pace to takeover eardrums and iPods throughout the world. He plays (Le) Poisson Rouge tonight before finishing up the rest of his tour.
