FIGHT TILL THE END

Had a show tonight at the Bitter End - hopefully got some pics and videos to come -

Been really thinking about who I am as an artist - the kind of music I want to make and what I wanna do with it - a little bit of an identity crisis - but so grateful for some great conversations I've had with my friends -

My friend Demond wrote me on facebook chat:


this is a jumping spot for you

don't live in fear !!!!

I KNOW THIS!

fall into the support that is around
DON"T EVER GIVE UP!
FIGHT TILL THE END!

Weekend

has been pretty uneventful. Lots of sleeping/relaxing.

Hung out with my friend Demond Nason at his awesome apartment in Astoria.

He cooked some salmon and we watched "Inglorious Basterds," awesome movie! I love Quentin Tarantino!


Saturday I went to see my friend in a play at the Cringefest at the Producer's Club. Silly fun!!

Cake Shop

Aaaah I'm up too late AGAIN!

I found this on YouTube. It was posted by Heightz, the rapper who featured in my song "Saturday" and performed with me at my last Pianos show. In this video, you can kinda get a sense of my live show. This last one (on February 6) was so much fun. It was a great turnout and really great energy from the crowd!


Today was great. After work, my friend Demond came over. I helped him with some music, 
and then we jammed. Check out this video of us singing "Ordinary People."


He helped me take my big old Yamaha Mo-8 to a cab, and I took it down to First Flight Music Store. Then I played tonight with Bloodsugars at Cakeshop. We had a great set! Man, I love getting lost in their music. Jason does such a great job. And big shout outs to Kenneth 
Salters on drums, and Brendan O'Grady on bass.

Shout out to Caitlin Devlin, an old Berklee friend who I saw tonight! She was at Cakeshop to see "Savoir Adore," and I'm so glad she caught our set and we got to catch up!

Now I'm watching American Idol once again, and sending out invitations to my next show. It's a modern dance/music collabo with my friend Todd Henry. I'll be dancing a bit and then
singing 5 songs with a small band. Drums, acoustic guitar, me on keys, and flute/sax for this one. I'm excited. CLICK HERE for more info on this event.

I'm out!
