On a late Monday night, in a low-ceilinged bar, Mauro Remiddi, better known by his moniker Porcelain Raft, took the stage with enough manly elegance and good humor to rival his doppelgänger, George Clooney.

For those of you who don’t know, Cooper Boone is a modern day Renaissance man. The country crooner-come-psychological guru-come-chef extraordinaire has managed to stake his claim as someone who is one of the most creative minds in New York City, which is saying something. Boone’s energy is infectious and manages to strike a chord with
