B.W.'s PLAYLIST/ KHSU, 90.5/ SAT., 8 SEPT. 2012

Pop chanteuse Eleni Mandell ponders the "old Arcata Hotel" in her new recording, I Can See the Future, referring to a dream of stopping at the corner hotel, just down the block from the row of bars and neon signs. Released on Yep Roc, Ms. Mandell's voice and songs can still seduce and slither.
