Gramercy Arms is an ever-changing group of musicians led by songwriter/producer Dave Derby.  To give you a feel for the mutable ensemble, on their new album The Seasons of Love the participants included a who’s-who of indie pop-rock such as Joan Wasser (Joan As Police Woman), Tanya Donelly (Belly, Throwing Muses), Matthew Caws (Nada Surf), Kendall Meade (Sparklehorse), Claudia Gonson (Magnetic Fields), Doug Gillard (Guided By Voices), Erin Moran (A Girl Called Eddy), Renee LoBue (Elk City), Kay Hanley (Letters To Cleo) and others, which may in part explain why the album took five (!) years to finish.

We admit to just now getting to know the power-pop of Gramercy Arms, but if the official video and song Beautiful Disguise below is any indication, we will soon be in a long-term relationship.  It doesn’t hurt that the song/video features one of our favorite singer-songwriters Lloyd Cole, and the talented Joan Wasser.  Check it out below.
