I am in Malibu today for a SoFar Sounds gig – part of the Malibu Wine Series. This feels like a good way to take a deep breath before another crazy work week – on the other end of which we have Zane Carney bringing his guitar licking, (hopefully) new songs, and plenty of stories to the Hotel Cafe. Zane has been busy doing a stint on The Voice Romania (!?), touring with Foster the People, co-founding a new music platform and playing gigs on the other coast. He’s just come off a mini tour with Evan + Zane (his duo project with Evan Rachel Wood) and now we’ve finally got him back in LA!
