About this user
The HeartSleeves formed in 2007 when Jared Lucas Nathanson (vocals- Grits) and collaborator drinking buddy Wayne "Rhino" Flower (bass -- The Halo Benders, Treepeople, Violent Green ) collided at high velocity with Jared's high school chum Joel "JG" Greenlee (sax), Joshua Lee Loomis (vocals, guitar, keys -- The Great Buriers) and Ariel "R E L" Rejman (drums -- The Great Buriers, Air and Space Museum, Jalopy) down at the Fenway practice space. Country fell into the funk, soul got some pop and jazz on it and the Chocolate got covered in peanut butter.
After a some gigs and an album (Dirt & Water), we welcomed Ben Margolis (sax -- The Peoples Donut) Robert Gilmore (bass -- Air and Space Museum), Alex Blinn (drums) and John McGregor (guitar -- Overrated, Magambo and Soul Sauce).
Current members include Jared (Vocals), Ben (Sax) and Helen Aki (Guitar/Vocals)
We are currently working on our second album "Peripheral People" and have released four singles from it, including upstate New York love song "Leslie," our New England sports tribute "Patriots Day," and the Jewish Rock anthem "The Son of Lenny Bruce."
If Thomas Hart Benton and Lenny Bruce had a band with Percy Sledge and Orson Welles...... We would open for them... no cost
