Emily Zuzik<\/a> is a veteran of the New York City music scene, but you might also recognize her voice from Moby’s latest record – she collaborated on a track called The Low Hum<\/em> – or from television and movies: her songs have appeared in Smallville<\/em>, Ticking Clock<\/em>, and Fifth Form<\/em>.<\/p>\n

She has just released her seventh record, The Wild Joys of Living<\/em>, and I had the pleasure of attending her show at The Living Room – a venue as tiny and cozy as the name would suggest – this past Saturday night, where she played the record in its entirety. Ladies and gentlemen, it is delicious. The songs run the gamut from sweet pop morsels to fuzzier, more aggressive rock and roll. I was especially fond of Motels<\/em>, which is about naughty things people do in motels, and also You’re The One<\/em>, which is sweet but not treacle-y love song.<\/p>\n

As a taste, I give you a video of her singing Want to Go Out Tonight?<\/em>, which is the first single off of the new record:<\/p>\n
