"Paris Loves LA" Summer Concert

Ah, the sensation of summer! Imagine spending a July evening filled with wine and relaxing jazz music at a Parisian cafe.

Leighton Meester's Stylish Venture Into Music

If electro is what sizzles on the radio these days, there’s no doubt Leighton Meester’s debut album is going to do just fine as soon as it’s released. With her talent and personality, she’ll definitely feel right at home with the music world as she does when she’s reigning the Upper East Side on Gossip Girl.

Among her existing solo tunes is her little collaboration with Robin Thicke that is jam-packed with energetic beats and a savvy metropolitan vibe. Franceppuccino enjoys the reference to fascinating cities like London, Paris and Berlin. Does it leave you addicted?
