Letters to Cleo et The Sheila Divine

Letters to Cleo was an alternative rock band from Boston, Massachusetts, best known for the 1993 single "Here & Now", from their full-length debut album Aurora Gory Alice (the band attained exposure outside of Boston due to the album's popularity). The band's members were Michael Eisenstein, Kay Hanley, Stacy Jones, Greg McKenna, Scott Riebling, and later, Tom Polce. The group disbanded in 2000 but reunited for a small tour in 2008.They are great live and you shouldn't miss out. The crowd is going crazy while the band sings and jams out in front of me. Letters to Cleo played gigs in several Boston clubs, including T.T. The Bear's Place and The Rathskellar. They released their first full length album, Aurora Gory Alice, on CherryDisc Records in 1993. The album received extensive airplay around the New England region and after a much hyped show at South by Southwest in Austin, Letters to Cleo signed a major label record deal with Giant Records, a Warner Brothers subsidiary, and Aurora Gory Alice was re-released worldwide. The band had their first big hit single with "Here & Now", which gained greater exposure as part of the Melrose Place soundtrack. The song reached No. 10 on the Billboard Modern Rock Singles chart.

I am a relatively new fan of the Sheila divine but fell in love with their music the first time I heard it. I went the the concert at the Sinclair in Cambridge with high expectations and their performance far exceeded them. They put on such a great show, so full of passion and emotion. They had the whole place singing along. The crowd was so connected as well. Aaron and the band subtly joked with the crowd and the crowd responded positibly. The band also had some intresting acts play before them who also preformed fantastically. They were all so down to earth and funny and relatable. I loved everything about the show and will buy tickets as soon as they come around again. 10/10 live performance
