Check out what the critics have to say about New Coat of Paint: The Songs of Tom Waits& "Opening with the track after which the show was named, it was clear that we were in for an hour of top quality music. Alison Coppe_x0019_ s voice is sublime. It is full and throaty, filled with rich tones and bubbling with emotion. Her range is wide, hitting the high notes with seemingly little effort and reveling in the sultry tones of the lower register. Providing the instrumental component of the evening were David Mazzarelli laying the foundations on drums, Michael Ciaramella, switching between electric and double bass, Luke Ferguson showing off his multi-instrumentality on electric guitar and trombone, Giovanni Clemente adding musical highlights on saxophone and, musical director Aaron Nash on piano." -Kryztoff RAW "Coppe stole the show with her bombastic vocals and audience banter, dishing up a combination of confidence, charisma and cheek that fused an instant connection with the crowd... Over the course of an hour, Coppe and co. presented a delicious medley of Waits classics, effortlessly reworking his traditional fare of booze and babes into something all their own... Without doubt, Alison Coppe, Aaron Nash and their band mates are captivatingly talented musicians to watch out for" -Fringe Benefits
