• "Like the original Ike & Tina Turner Revue, minus the beatings. I love them." -John Waters on The Little Death NYC.
  
  The Little Death nyc is Aaron Brooks (drums), Laura Dawn (lead vocals), Daron Murphy (guitar, bass, & harmonica) and Moby (bass, guitar). Their sound is like a drunken bar fight between John Lee Hooker and Kurt Weill or the desperate love-child of Big Mama Thornton and Robert Mitchum. Old blues, soul, punk & vintage psychedelic slamming behind songs about fucking and despair, drunken joy and glorious dissolution, fronted by a white girl with a voice equal parts Bessie Smith and Dusty Springfield.
