His name is Lucca

By Nick A. Zaino III, Globe Correspondent  |  March 24, 2008

Tony Lucca may be a bit of a folkie, but his pop crossover appeal has landed him opening slots for 'N Sync and Marc Anthony. He also has enough soul to hang with Joss Stone on a duet of "When Love Comes to Town" (check his MySpace site for the video). Lucca will play on a double bill with the like-minded Curtis Peoples, whose self-titled debut album is expected this summer, tonight at the Paradise Lounge. 18+ 8. $12. Paradise Lounge, 967 Commonwealth Ave. 617-562-8814. thedise.com
