These are pictures from the past band I was in. The one on the left is the cover of "Improper Bostonian" 2004...They airbrushed my face, cant see it too well there, but...it was strange for me to see it! The pic on the right is a show we had at the Paradise, on commonwealth, Boston. ahhh memories..

pics...



so this is a pic of some of the guys Ill be working with. The one in the middle in the hat is spiro. He is my new love!! He is really wonderful, and is backing me while Im in nyc,. .. and he can dance like no one Ive ever seen!

woohooo!!! He half greek half british...I really did it this time...

my last day at springwell is tomorrow, if anyone is stopping by...

Getting close.

Ok. Its getting close, and I am making last minute moves to get everything together. I have two sets on New Years in Nyc, the first is at Chapel of Sacred mirrors, Alex grey's gallery and space. He has recently worked with Tool, a pretty big band in the US, right now. Here is the space Ill be playing my first set for the night (around 11pm) : cosm.org

my second party that night is in brooklyn, and here is the link for that:

that party is going to be huge, and my set is at sunrise. havent stayed up all night in a long time, so I better get used to it now...
The label already gave me an advance for the night, so all looks well...
Ive changed my diet already, a bit, to keep my voice strong and give me more endurance. I drink yerba mate' instead of the black tea (ive been so addicted to chai and I have to give it up!!)..no coffee!!! ever!! and I have gone onto a mostly vegetarian/vegan diet. Sushi is great for the voice, because I can eat and sing soon after eating. One of the biggest issues for a vocalist is timing sleep and eating... if I eat too close to the set, its bad news!! but if I eat too early, I wont have the strength to push out the volume I need to have..Its a fine line!

Its taken me years to perfect my habits to accomodate my voice. I know my body now, so its easy.

So, as you all may have heard by now, I am moving to Nyc, January 1st.. to pursue my music career. I was offerred a really amazing deal from an independent label in Nyc..

The studio that I will be recording at is : http://janfolkson.com/

Ive already begun recording, and have been traveling to Nyc every weekend through November...
We have one track done, but I have many others to write lyrics to, and learn. We have our first show Januray 1st, at a party at an underground artist warehouse called "Grand Space". We will be performing on the roof in a heated tent. The set is a sunrise set, which means exactly that. Should be an interesting night!
