The Novellas Live at The Fort At Sidewalk Cafe

Nothing says home like The Fort At Sidewalk Cafe for these intrepid songsters. Bringing their shows consistently to the venue and improving their performance and songs all along the way. A great group whose songs bring out their daily lives to the fans.

The Novellas with Peter chance and Laura Ogar are one of New York’s favorite duos. The Novellas are featured from other venues, blend superb lyrics with highly distinctive musical signatures and a performance where you can feel the energy. Laura’s credits for synthesizer, theremin, tape effects, chimes, are a clue to the breadth of talent within this group.

This concert is 46 minutes and is very unusual with The Novellas as a full band. Normally the Novellas perform as an acoustic duo with just Peter Chance and Laura Ogar. Here we can see the power, timing, and extreme emotions that pour out of Peter and manifest themselves in a great show. This is not someone who stands there droning on a microphone but feels every note he plays.

I had the great opportunity to watch this group over 3 years in their growth. Watched as Laura went to London and Peter’s emotions helped create an abundance of songs, but left him sad and missing Laura. It was a pleasure to see Laura return and join Peter on stage for many more performances. Most of those at the legendary Sidewalk Cafe at Lach’s Anti-Folk nights. The OnlineTV.com broadcasts were one of the ways we could bring talent like this so the world.
