I wanted to take a minute to thank everyone who was a part of the HUGELY SUCCESSFUL GoGirls Philly Fest last night at World Cafe Live! Many thanks to Madalyn for creating such a great community for female rockers. And I applaud Deb, Lynn, and Nancie for putting together such a great event! To all the amazing women I shared the stage with last night, truly an honor. =)

The biggest thanks goes to everyone that came out to support our cause! With a packed house full of devoted music fans, there was a lot of love in the room! We were able to raise $2,000 for this year's selected charity, CaringBridge.org, a company that offers free websites to families during health crises. I was thrilled to be a part of such a memorable evening!

It just goes to show, when women come together in song to make a difference, a difference can be made! Why? CUZ CHICKS ROCK!

Hello lovelies!
Many thanks to those who sent birthday wishes, or were there to take part in the festivities of what was a truly wonderful birthday weekend!

It started with my show with Andrew Lipke and Lizanne Knott at the Underground in Philly. I promoted it as an evening with good friends, great music, and cupcakes ---and it was just that! After some mass consumption of pink cupcakes by all in the room, and a rousing rendition of Happy Birthday, it was time to start the show!

Lizanne took the stage and played a beautiful set, with her delicate voice and strong songwriter presence, she is now officially one of my favorite artists. Glenn backed her up on guitar, and I had the distinct pleasure of joining her on her tune "Jesus or Elvis" to bust out some harmonies. If you aren't familiar with Lizanne or her music, I highly recommend you check her out: www.myspace.com/lizanneknott

Then, it was my turn to play...I guess it would be pretty strange for me to say how awesome I was. ...But you can imagine. lol. Mr. Andrew Lipke came up to join me on guitar for "Wasting My Time", and it was quite the good time. Then, after some random talk with the audience about a CSI episode involving "furries" (which left us all astounded about just how much we knew on the topic. lol.), it was time for Andrew to take the stage.

He sweetly allowed me to choose his entire set, since it was my birthday, and offered the privilege to perform with him on any song I chose. Of course, he rocked the house as usual. He even performed the ABBA classic "Fernando", at my request. (For those of you who don't know, I'm a HUGE ABBA fan.)

It was a great night! But it wasn't over then. The next day I had to prepare to travel up to NYC for my set at the Bitter End. I again was able to connect with some of my beautiful friends, and the set was pretty killer too. =)

So there you have it, my birthday weekend in a nutshell. And I spent it the only way I would've wanted to: playing music and spending time with friends.

Thanks to all those who helped to make this birthday great!

Best,
Trisha =)

Hello lovelies!

So, what a whirlwind week it has been! On Tuesday, my good friend Tara and I road-tripped it up to Boston/Cambridge for my show at Club Passim, but also to see our friend Carrie. Carrie is one of the first friends I ever had...we met on the school bus. How cute is that?! It was so enriching to get to reconnect with her, and as always, it was a blast and a half to hang out with Tara. Boy, did we laugh! Thank you ladies, for making the trip so memorable. I also got to have dinner with my mom and dad's high school chum, Johnny. It was an enlightening experience to know just what kind of cloth I'm cut from. Don't worry, it's quite a fine fabric indeed! =)

And MANY thanks to my MySpace frands who came out to Club Passim to show their support! The room was full of love, good vibes, and great music from all who participated in the Open Mic. It was just what I needed to be a part of! Hope to have the same experience when I return to Cambridge for the Campfire Festival at Club Passim in September! (check the shows section for more info!)

Next, it was off to Connecticut to play a slot at the Agricultural Fair! Thanks to everybody who stopped by to watch the performance! "Connecticutians" are lovely folks! My only disappointment: there wasn't enough time for me to grab some funnel cake before it was off to the next destination!

So, THANK YOU NEW ENGLAND, for showing this Pennsylvania girl some love! I look forward to the next time I get to travel up to this beautiful region!

All The Best,

Trisha =)

Hello Lovelies!

So, I had an absolute BLAST on my road trip down from Philadelphia through the great states of Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Tennessee! I met some amazing people, Michael England and I truly appreciate everyone's support who came out to the shows!

We also want to thank the many great musicians we got to share the stage with, quick shout-out to our Nashville pal Christopher Whitney (www.myspace.com/christopherwhitney), who joined us in our songwriter round at French Quarter Cafe!

Hope you enjoy the photos! Looking forward to the next adventure!

All The Best,

Trisha =)
