Jesca Hoop @ Hotel Cafe, 1/8/08
Last Tuesday, local singer/songwriter Jesca Hoop (MySpace), whose album Kismet was number one on Nic Harcourt's Top Ten Albums of 2007, performed at the Hotel Cafe in Hollywood.
Opening for Hoop were KS Rhoads (MySpace), Rie Sinclair (MySpace), and HoneyHoney (MySpace), featuring Wendy Wang from The Sweet Hurt (MySpace).
Hoop was scheduled to again perform tonight at the Hotel Cafe, but according to the venue's website, "Due to illness, Jesca Hoop has postponed her show." She's now rescheduled to perform on February 5th.
