"One More Thing..."

The first-ever "The Real Housewives of Columbo" was a smash success!! Thank you to everyone who came out and packed Cornelia Street Cafe. We had a blast! We had such a good time, in fact, that we've already been booked for a return engagement. So, mark your calendars: Saturday, June 17th, 6pm at Cornelia Street Cafe! A whole new housewife, an entirely different murder.

We'll see you there!

"Just One More Thing..."

Oh yes, people. This is happening. From the deep recesses of my brain, I bring you...

THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF COLUMBO!

Be sure to make those reservations by calling Cornelia Street Cafe at 212-989-9319!

It’s the 1970’s. The cocktail parties are glamorous, the brandy snifters abound, the clothes are colorfully polyester, and when foul play occurs, homicide detective Lieutenant Columbo is on the case. But behind every man’s untimely death remains a shattered housewife who wants answers. 

Join Leslie Goshko (Huffington Post, Sideshow Goshko) as she presents this comedic musical-mystery show where day-drinking is glamorous and chain-smoking the norm. Play detective and receive clues from live musical performances, special guests, overly dramatic pauses, and more. And just when you think you have the case solved, there’s “one more thing”…there always is when you’re dealing with The Real Housewives of Columbo!

And now with special guests:

GARY BURTON!

TAMRA PASELK!

and

JAN TILLEY!

A Porch Music "Thank You!"

Thank you to everyone who came out to Cornelia Street Cafe for Porch Music! We had a great time and are already planning the next one.

And thanks to Andy Christie for filming and editing this video. Bluegrass it is!

She's Having a Baby!...and other Kate Bush Trivia

Piano party clips are sloooowly rolling out (I'm also still learning how to use iMovie. I know, I'm late to the game.), but here we have a cover of Kate Bush's "This Woman's Work" where I dissect the movie "She Having a Baby" and bring you one degree closer to Kevin Bacon.

One Angry Dwarf and 200 Solemn Faces

Now that I've had a day to recover, a HUGE thank you to everyone who came out to "An Old-Fashioned Piano Party with Leslie Goshko!" You guys were an awesome crowd and so much fun.

Birthday Duets and Janis Joplin Sing-Alongs!

Today is my mom's birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MOM! And in September, for the first time EVER, she flew to New York to visit and see me perform. So of course, I had to do a special song just for her.


Big thanks to Camille Harris for making this duet happen. You can catch her (and yours truly!) at Rockwood Music Hall on Thursday, December 4th, 8pm. 

Thanks to Todd Jackson for filming and editing all these clips. You rock!

And of course, thanks to everyone who came out to "An Old-Fashioned Piano Party with Leslie Goshko!" Y'all sing Janis real nice ;)

Whipping Post

In another life, I'd love to have been a member of a bad a** 70's classic rock band. But until my time machine gets fixed, I'll arrange my favorite Allman Brothers song for piano. Big thanks to Todd Jackson for filming. Here it is! First clip from this past weekend's piano party!
