The best NYCSmoke album yet, "Musique Noir," the band's 3rd full-length release, is named after Statland's favorite Film Noir style. "I like to think of my music as a black and white movie, telling a story frame after frame," Statland says. "I want my music to be like a short story, with a beginning, middle and end. I want it to tell a story, convey some sort of truth." These songs are those of a NYC street soul survivor in the vein of Lou Reed, The Replacements, and The Who. NYCSmoke just gets better with each release. Statland's voice is the engine of a freight train on the loose that will never stop. Grab your copy today!
