Last Saturday we had the pleasure of doing a photo booth at the La Chansons’ CD Release Show at the Drunken Unicorn. The La Chansons’ pop set was super energetic + the hometown crowd obviously enjoyed every second of it. I was especially smitten with lead singer Carson’s numerous outfit changes, PLUS she started out wearing a homemade glitter cape which read “QUEEN OF THE DANCE FLOOR.” Any girl who can seriously wear and rock a cape is cool in my book. I’m getting one next week, most def. Check out some of the good times!
You can check out all the band and photo booth fun right HERE in our Photo Gallery. Smooches to our girl Zoe for the awesome photos. I’d also like to thank the La Chansons for letting us be part of such an awesome show AND the free CD they gave every person who attended! I’ve been listening to mine in my car all week, imagining what I’m going to put on my very own cape. Hmmmm. SD HBIC? No, way too obvious. I WANT A BABY?? No, totally untrue and might turn off potential suitors. Think Sarah think! I LOVE AMERICANIZED MEXICAN FOOD?!? True, but now that just seems a lil silly. Yargh. Gonna be thinking about this one for a lonnng time. -Sarah

La Chansons is an Atlanta married-couple-turned dance pop duo with a really charming and impressive bio. Think Mates of State but with a 80s nostalgic twist. I absolutely love their aesthetic and the tracks are as catchy as all those Le Tigre/Gravy Train songs you probably still jam out to! You can listen to their new album “King and Queen of the Dancefloor” here. Plus, the singer Carson Keller is such a babe!
So come dance with the Sorry, Darlin Ladies and get your picture taken by Zoe Cipolla at the Drunken Unicorn this Saturday For the La Chansons’ CD RELEASE SHOW!!! In a town where electro-pop acts are hard to find, La Chansons are definitely a bright spot in Atlanta’s music scene. Plus, we hear there’s a free CD with admission. Sweet!
Hey guys. So earlier this evening I was just hanging out in my apartment, eating a lovely lean cuisine, drinking a soy latte (official dinner of BALLAS) and watching Parks and Recreation on NBC. Then suddenly I remembered something awesome. Something soooo blog worthy. I met the character Tom Haverford (aka the super cute Indian guy) before. And moreover, it was because he came to one of our parties last year at the W Midtown. I feel honored. And kinda silly for not mentioning this before.
Exhibit A: Super Famous Actor Aziz Ansari (with super cute posse)at a Sorry, Darlin Party. He’s the one giving you the crazy eye!
First Tom Haverford, next Jim Halpert. He’s always been my number one NBC leading man, though Alec Baldwin on 30 Rock is kinda tasty. Love how he calls Tina Fay “Lemon”…sigh…anyhoo. Aziz was extremely friendly and uh, was the one who approached Gina and I. With a bunch of other maybe/questionably famous dudes (writers perhaps?). They quickly chatted/sized us up and Aziz answered all of my silly TV questions, like “OMG You know Rashida Jones? She’s so pretty! And Amy Poehler! Are they funny in real life? What kinda lunch do you get?? TELL ME!!” It was a fun night. And yes, Amy Poehler is nice AND funny in real life. So says Aziz. Good.
Our next star studded event is Tuesday, January 26th at the Highland Ballroom!

The combination of Werner Herzog directing and David Lynch producing would have compelled me to see almost any film. The addition of an incredible cast (Willem Defoe, Grace Zabriskie, Chloe Sevigny, Udo Kier and Michael Shannon) makes this movie impossible to resist.
Herzog’s interest in tales of obsession led him to this film, a true crime story of a young man, Brad McCullum, who stabs his mother to death with a sword while rehearsing for a Sophocles play in which a son murders his mother. Shannon is exceptional in portraying the son’s decent into obsession, confusion and, finally, murder. His portrayal of Brad McCullum’s delusional downward spiral isn’t too heavy-handed and is, at times, even likable.
The always-incredible Grace Zabriskie plays Brad’s ill-fated mother, complete with all the bizarre facial expressions that we’ve come to expect from her. She’s overbearing, doting, overprotective and fragile at the same time. Udo Kier, as the director of the Brad’s play, is impeccable. My only regret is that his part wasn’t larger. Defoe was outstanding, as usual, in his portrayal of the lead San Diego homicide detective on the case (it seems he’s everywhere lately. If you haven’t already seen Antichrist, see it immediately). Sevigny, as fiancé Ingrid, can’t really act and doesn’t even try.
All in all, this is definitely a film worth seeing. There are some gorgeous shots of the Southern Californian and Peruvian landscapes and the composition of many of the shots including mother and son are equally beautiful. The interweaving of the Sophocles play plot-line with the actual murder could perhaps have been treated a bit differently (as the film stands it appears as more of an eerie coincidence rather than as an actual catalyst for the murder); nevertheless the dynamics between mother and son will leave you chilled and uncomfortable. -kellybourdet
