I went to Psychedelic Furs singer Richard Butler’s solo show at the Canal Room last night (Mar. 25). There was an opening act who I think is called Billion Stars, a trio with a singer, bassist, and keyboardist. Although its set was short, maybe four or five songs, Billion Stars sounded pretty interesting: an amalgam of pop, jazz, soul, and hip-hop. Unfortunately I didn’t catch what the songs were actually about or the individual members name. Tried to find out if there was a web site but no such luck. Anyway, here are some photographs of the group (If anyone knows who they are, drop me a line):
