This past Saturday, the Rochester based live session series, Genesee Live, released the 12th installment in its ongoing project, this time featuring singer/songwriter Ben Morey. You may remember Morey as we featured the Rochester musician's new album, Pleasant, as our Album of the Week in early 2014. Following last month's Pleistocene showcase, Genny Live appears to be moving away from the live venue tapings into a more intimate and subdued set of recordings, resulting in one of GL's best clips to date in Morey's kitchen session. You may watch the full video with Morey below, and for past installments of Genesee Live, check out the site's Tumblr page.

We filled you in last month to a Rochester session series, titled Genesee Live, that was releasing live videos of some of the town's best acts from across our sister city. Just last night, the folks at Genny Live released their eleventh session, this time featuring the Fredonia rooted act Pleistocene, fronted by Rochester native Katie Preston. Buffalonians may remember Preston as a former Steak and Cake artist/collaborator, and whose other band, Give it up for the Otter, appeared way back at the label's first bday party. Genny Live was able to get Preston in house for a stripped down performance as Pleistocene and you can watch the full session below.

We are quite fond of recording studio Quiet Country Audio and their live session series here at the blog. In Rochester, our sister city to the east, there is a similar type of series that you should be checking out. Genesee Live, a music webseries founded in September of 2012, has been releasing interviews, full-length performances, and other videos from Rochester acts all year long. The web series recorded and released their first live show back in February, featuring a performance from Maybird's lead singer Josh Netsky at the Bug Jar. Past installments have included showcases from some Rochester's best acts, including Mikaela Davis, holiday party artist SPORTS, and our personal favorite in the series so far, Harmonica Lewinski. All past features can be viewed here.
Yesterday, Genesee Live released their 10th installment in their performance series, a December taping from Cottage Jefferson, who placed at #8 in our favorite Rochester songs of 2013, at the Lovin' Cup. You may watch the full clip below.
