Eleni Mandell is one of LA’s most dependably great singer songwriters – witty, warm, sensual and sweet. I hear all of that in her latest single, “Magic Summertime”, off her album “I Can See the Future”.
It’s classic pop about a romantic love affair that could never work but was fun while it lasted. I love this line especially:
“I knew, in my heart, that our chances were slim,
But a gambler never gambles to be wise.”
It’s lovely. Let it take you away on this Monday afternoon and grab the record here. She’ll be playing the Bootleg Theater on August 25 if you’re in LA!
