Found this old draft from 2011- hilarious. Yes, Adele is good, as it turns out:
So, this girl can totally sing! Caught her show at the Excel last night, and when you can make the Excel sound good, you got somethin’ go’in on. Of course, I would’ve rather heard her at First Ave. where I was originally supposed to, but I guess you take what you can get. Anyway, the surprise: A good ways into the show last night, Adele proceeds to explain in her delightfully Northern English accent that she loves the next song she’s about to sing, it sometimes makes her smile, sometimes cry, sometimes laugh, and is just downright beautiful. What song does she break into with her pianist? “I Can’t Make You Love Me”! Seems to me this is being released on our album with impeccable timing. Further, I like our take on it better! (Don’t get me wrong, she killed it, in her oh-so-soulful way but what Jake Nyberg does on the drums makes it completely fresh.) Radio stations agree, this track has thus far gotten a lot of spin locally and out of state! It’s time to bring Bonnie Raitt’s classic back, that’s for sure. I’m glad we are! Me and Adele 😉 Catch her in a show sometime, you’ll be glad you did. Bonnie Raitt is not half bad live either 😉 Actually, she’s STUPID good.

Or, CD Baby, itunes, etc. The new record is called, “Fever.” That is all. Peace, Jana Banana =0)
P.S. Composing today- expect new music soon! Even newer than the newest, which is now I guess NOT the newest…anymore. I know, right?!
