Lane Moore is a real triple threat – an NYC-based stand-up comedian, she’s also the host of hit show “Tinder Live,” and a seriously badass singer who fronts the band It Was Romance.
Moore regularly posts clips of herself singing “kitchen karaoke” on her Instagram, so even if you didn’t know she’s in the group BUST Magazine named Best Band back in 2015, it’s hard not to notice her incredible voice, smoky and edgy and closely resembling the kind of stuff soulful grunge bands aspired to back in the 90s.
Her latest song, topical love balled “Be My Rachel Maddow,” is an upbeat ode to this past week’s controversial hero, MSNBC host Rachel Maddow, who’s been getting flack for her much-hyped but ultimately anti-climactic reveal of Trump’s tax returns.
But hey, forget the haters – at least Maddow tried! And that’s what Moore loves about her. Take a listen to the above love song, in which Moore implores her future suitors to buck up and, y’know, be her Rachel Maddow.
