Momingstar are basically
JesseDVemon,asinger,
guitarist and composer,
surrounded by a small cadre
of intimate accomplices and
a larger cast of anxi1iarles. A
crude shorthand description
of their approach would
suggest that they are some-
times capable of sounding
like Leonard 0ohen’s much
younger brother accompanied
by PaoloConte’s musicians. lt
would be very very hard to
resist the charm of I Heard
Beau1y Calling,in which the
seductive double-bass line
from GilEvans’s LasVegas
Tango Itself borrowed from
Ravel’s Piéce en`Formede
Habanera)supports Vernon’s
yearning vocal and a loose
weave of violin, accordion,
trumpet and baritone sax,
the whole thing evoking
rainy seafronts and neon-
streaked alleyways. Bestof
all, the pieces don’t sound as
though they have been
rehearsed to death. As a result,
the music breathes.(RW)
