It’s not exactly a secret that Olivia Mancini & the Mates are performing at Black Cat tonight. That information is publicly available. What you may not know, however, is that this will be the unofficial/on the down-low release party for the band’s new CD, You Can See the Mountains From Here. It’s a sweet, tightly arranged record, full of alt-country and pop gems and, you know, not the kind of thing that should be kept under-wraps.

Olivia Mancini & the Mates/ Oscillating Fan Club/ The Beanstalk Library @ Black Cat
