Here's to wishing you a very happy September! And here we are again. Another fun and crazy summer winds down and we all feel like we just got here. They say that when you're a kid, summertime lasts forever because your constantly doing different things and learning so much. I must say, at 38, I'm doing many different things these days and learning much daily...and summer still flies by - But it's still all so good :)
First and foremost, I want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH!...I've seen so many of you at many of my shows this summer that I can't contain my happiness and gratitude. It's so neat to get random hugs, get some hang time in, and the best part: I get to sing to you...often. It keeps my heart full and my dreams happening...Life rules! I truly hope I'm giving back to you while you guys help me live this wonderful life of music.
All right...Neil, Charlie, and I are continuing to rock and roll weekly...discovering new favorite places to play and still loving some of the regular venues. And as the deck solo shows slowly migrate to solo apres ski shows (did someone say ski!!!), my excitement for singing grows even further. Please make sure to check out www.NOWisNOW.com weekly so you know where to catch the band or a solo show; I do my best to update this page the first of each week.
Another fun thing happening is how the band is evolving...There's a very cool and different wall of sound happening these days. It's neat to hear how the collective tones are more melodic coupled with the vibe of 3 instruments & 3 vox from 3 folks. If you haven't seen the Neil/Charlie/Mitch format yet, I promise you you'll be smiling within minutes of the first notes played...please let us sing to you.
And I want to also say a special thanks to my honey, Dylan...we just celebrated our 10 year wedding anniversary. Holy canolies! And I think Summer flew by...where did the last 10 amazing years go? what fun! We celebrated by visiting the Saugenay Fjord (about 4 hours north of Quebec City). If any of you like whale watching, this place is whale overload - if there is such a thing. Aside from our 10 year kiss, I think the highlight of our trip was when a humpback leaped out of the water 100 feet off the bow of our 12 person zodiac raft.
Another note of positivity: Obama. Nuff said.
Have a wonderful September, you guys! And please check www.NOWisNOW.com weekly. And again, thank you so much for helping me live my dream. I live a life of love & gratitude and I couldn't be happier sharing it all with you.
peace, love, & hugs,
