here are countless musical acts Twith love stories attached; however, so many shy away from attention surrounding love. And many could learn a thing or two from Johnnyswim's Abner and Amanda, whose music on 2016 Hamptons-themed album Georgica Pond clearly reflects their love for one another, their music, and their family. Their folk-soul sound comes from deep roots, as Abner was professionally trained in his hometown of Jacksonville, Florida, while Amanda, daughter of singer Donna Summer and composer Bruce Sudano, was raised in both Los Angeles and Nashville, the city where the duo ended up meeting at Sunday church and later in a songwriter's workshop back in 2005. The songs genuinely sound like summer, whisps of voices, breaths, noises you might hear in a house returning summer after summer, with timeless melodies, romantic lyrics, and an uplifting delivery. Johnnyswim play Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center on June 24 (and they will play in New York City at Irving Plaza November 6 & 7). Abner and Amanda spoke with Hamptons Monthly about how the region is a kind of sanctuary for relaxation, shared the one song that has stuck with them from falling in love to giving birth to son Joaquin, and why they continue to pursue their dream of music.

RoséCrawlLet’s Celebrate and Drink Pink

ew things have captured the public imagination more vividly in recent years Fthan rosé. Consider the phenomena that followed as soon as wine lovers realized there was more to drinking pink than flabby White Zinfandel: “rosé all day” (an excuse for a glass with breakfast if e’er we heard one); “brosé” (because pink wine isn’t just for the ladies); even “frosé” (which, trust us: if you haven’t tried it, do it.) Yes, it seems that rosé is here to stay, and especially on the East End, that’s a very, very good thing. After all, what would you rather drink on a hot summer’s afternoon among the vines? Nothing, that’s what. It’s the perfect beverage when the mercury hits 70+ degrees. This summer, for the second year in a row, four of Long Island’s top wineries have come together to present the #NorthForkRoséCrawl on Saturday, June 10th. It’s a playful, self-guided tour of all four wineries, with fun goings-on at each stop along the way. Oh, and of course: plenty of rosé. We recommend a designated driver – a friend with the iron constitution to resist pink wine on a summer Saturday or a hired hand, your choice! – and plenty of time to enjoy the scenery at each stop as you sip and slurp your way through four very different, very delicious New York rosés. There’s no restriction on how you make the circuit, but we suggest starting in the west and heading towards the end of the island (the better to catch the rosé- colored sunset at Orient Point at the end of the day, my dear).

56 HAMPTONSMONTHLY.COM or those who are curious, here’s a Fbrief history of alcoholic punch: The drink stems from a traditional Indian concoction of five simple ingredients— alcohol, lemon, sugar, water, and spices—named pañc, the Sanskrit word for “five.” The British East India Company brought the drink westward, where it eventually morphed into rum punch in Jamaica in the mid-17th century. Now, in the Hamptons, these punches offer four different modern PUNCH renditions of this age-old drink, each with a style and recipe of its own. s indicated by its name that Atranslates to “determination to create change,” nightlife hotspot Jue DRUNK Lan Club is not for the faint of heart. Four Interpretations of a Traditional Tipple It was opened last year by the glitzy Philippe Chow group as a sister locale to the original Flatiron Jue Lan in Manhattan and instantly became a lightning rod for those who like to incorporate the finer things in life into their party habits. It was designed to feel like a modern voyeurism into the lives of the original Jue Lan Society, a secret group of 14 Chinese artists who fled communist China in the 1930s to experience the throes of Paris’s thriving art heyday. Here, the menu recalls their mainland roots; the art, their boundary-pushing aesthetic; and the cocktail culture, the riotous nightlife of Paris at that time. In a space filled with museum-worthy works by the likes of Keith Haring and Mark Kostabi, diners munch on dim sum and classic Chinese mains made with a “farm-to-chopsticks” ethos and sip on any one of the myriad cocktails, most with Asian twists—sake martinis, gin sours shaken with matcha green tea, and the Planters Punch, a strong concoction of Kraken Black Spiced Rum, citrus juices, and pomegranate grenadine.

urfers may think that Left Hand Coffee derives its Sname from what are known as left-hand breaks, but in fact the meaning is meant to capture its founder’s identity of being left-handed—having to work outside of the norms and do things your own way. This translates beautifully into a bar constructed of driftwood, tables made of repurposed timber, coffee blends (the light espresso Lighthouse roast, the dark-roast Sinister blend) created in-house, and a peaceful atmosphere that makes this the perfect early morning spot for a coffee and pastry breakfast. Here, typical iced coffee is shunned in favor of the smoother Yama cold-drip method from Japan, which pairs well with one of the fine local pastries on offer, such as coffee crumble cake that’s baked nearby.

Getting to Know a Main Source of Montauk’s Morning Joe With all the buzz that surrounds the late- night fun found in the most eastern section of the Hamptons, it’s good for visitors to know how to get going in the morning. Left Hand Coffee in Montauk has unique options—and a singular name as well—so Hamptons Monthly took a moment to get know more about its beans, its brews and why choose to identify as a southpaw from owner Yannis Papagiannis.

First, a question passersby have raised: why the name “Left Hand Coffee?” Right Hand Coffee was already taken. Just joking. Left-handed people were always considered outcasts in a world where words like normal, correct, and proper were and still are synonymous with being right or right-handed. Since it just happened that when we were opening the place the original crew happened to be left-handed, we thought it was a good omen to name it as such--sort of lifting the spell, if you will.

What’s the story behind Left Hand Coffee? Would you say this is born from a love of the brewed bean, or is it a strictly business venture, or maybe somewhere in between? I would say it was a bit of both. Montauk had many things going on at the time, but a good cup of coffee was not of them. During my first summer as the food and beverage director at The Montauk Beach House, we developed an extensive coffee program there for our guests. But we immediately saw that a lot of non-hotel guests started coming in every morning to get coffee as well and they all had the same thing to say, which is that there was no place LEFT to get a decent espresso or a latte in town. When a location down the street became available, Larry Siedlick, who owns The Montauk Beach House, came to me and asked me if HAND I wanted to partner up and open a proper coffee bar. He didn’t have to ask me twice. 66COFFEE HAMPTONSMONTHLY.COM What’s the background of the beans that I wish I had the same passion for tea as I you choose to use?

And for those in search of tranquility and understated elegance, Not for Members Only Quogue Club at Hallock House offers the perfect getaway. In operation since 2014, the Club is the result of a thoughtful makeover by a group of local residents who purchased the historic Hallock House and restored the rundown structure to its original 19th-century appearance. With interior décor by renowned designer Alexa Hampton, it is now a private dining club and hotel featuring 14 rooms and suites adorned with beautiful textiles in carefully coordinated florals, stripes, and ikats. According to Interim General Manager Pascal Zugmeyer, “The décor, details, and level of service offered here all make the place special.” The Quogue Club’s location, right across the street from the Hampton Jitney stop and close to nearby beaches, is another great asset. Plus, it’s just 90 minutes from Manhattan, so getting there needn’t take up the entire day. The Club combines the features of a luxury boutique hotel with the coziness of an inn. “It’s a private dining club, but open to hotel guests, so it’s like a peekaboo into club life,” notes Zugmeyer. Like any exclusive club, there are excellent amenities, including a well-equipped gym and a dance studio hosting yoga and hip-hop classes every weekend, as well as a treatment room for massages. According to Zugmeyer, guests may also borrow hotel bicycles to get around the area and down to the beach. Books donated by club members are arranged on bookshelves all around the property--a homey touch.

Various specialty cuisines are offered throughout the summer: French fare for Bastille Day and barbeque for Independence Day, as well as tapas, Italian-themed, and Polynesian-themed weekends later in the season. Live bands are often brought in to entertain guests. “We like to keep it interesting for members,” says Zugmeyer. Golf enthusiasts can hone their swing at the Laurel Links Country Club, named one of the top ten NYC-area golf courses built in the past decade by Links magazine; and the hotel also offers year-round tennis at Westhampton Beach Tennis and Sport, just 10 minutes away. Those interested in local history will be impressed by the Quogue Club’s rich past. One of Quogue’s first hotels, Hallock House began as a farmhouse built in 1842. The Hallock family took in boarders who probably arrived by stagecoach (which stopped where the Jitney stops today). At the height of his political career, Daniel Webster stayed regularly at Hallock House when visiting the area for shooting trips. (Quogue was one of the first resort communities developed along Long Island’s south shore.) In 1871 the building was renovated and enlarged by John Dayton Hallock, who later built two cottages at the rear of the property. More recently, as the Inn at Quogue, the Hallock House served as a local restaurant. Open year round, Quogue Club can also be rented out in its entirety for weddings and other events. Whether seeking a relaxing week off, quick weekend getaway, or special event celebration, the Quogue Club offers a uniquely luxurious experience. (47 Quogue Street, 631.653.0100) the Quogue Club
