First/Last-The Right Now

"There are only so many times you can take back that cheating lover or accept excuses from a lazy scrub. It’s easier said than done, but one soul band is taking a stand. The Right Now isn’t going to take it anymore. The Right Now is fed up. And on their second record, The Right Now Gets Over You.
The challenging title is a reality check, but delivered with a smile from singer Stefanie Berecz. “It’s just a representation of the stories in the songs. Nearly every track has a cheating character, or someone who’s had enough of their lover. It’s a mixed bag of empowerment and regret.” Gets Over You continues the “it’s complicated” theme of 2010′s Carry Me Home, although this outing shows Berecz in a darker, seedier role."
Berecz will display that role as she and the band bring their soulful torch tunes to Pittsburgh tonight at the Thunderbird. Here's another preview of the gig. Stephanie was nice enough to take some time to participate in this edition of First/Last.

Thanks Stefanie.
