Ears Wide Open: The Blonde Names

0

Sharing this song in the social media is going to feel like insider trading. “Equalizer” is new from the Blonde Names, the nom de tune of Tatiana Simonian, whose day job is director of music industry relations for Twitter. Long before that job (and gigs as a label marketing manager and music journo), Simonian was a singer and songwriter with estimable chops, a passion she continues to pursue when not worrying about dispensing information in 140-character bites. At a club show at the Satellite back in November, Simonian showed she can carry a room, and the new single “Equalizer,” made with producer Johnny What, keeps that torch (and torch singing) flickering.
