Black Cab Sessions
Monday, June 16, 2008
Your task: Find a critically acclaimed songwriter, stuff him or her into a cab, and record an intimate live performance to be shared on the Internet. In New York, it might get you killed. But that's just what a team of British music promoters and filmmakers are doing inside London's famously roomy black cabs. Jono Stevens of the Black Cab Sessions talks about how an online music juggernaut got its start.

Who came first? Black Cab or La Blogotheque's Take Away Sessions? Very similar...and both fun all in all.
wait, they don't pay more to use the cab as a studio? i mean, studios are expensive.
