LOTS of booking, other funs too. posted - April 9, 2010
Adorable Hubby and I are both booking stuff like mad. We just completed a frantic Midwest run (6 appearances in 4 days) and are looking ahead to more shows together and apart. Headlines:
Bryan is doing his first-ever tour with HIS band in the first week of May. It's the "They're Both The Same Band" tour with the Mike Keneally Band and the Bryan Beller Band. Same 5 guys, different music/headliner, 5 dates in the Northeast. I'm excited for him. Visit bryanbeller.com for details.
We're playing a duo show in Nashville during NAMM weekend (6/18). See my calendar page for details.
I keep sneaking over to F. Scott's here in Nashville to play torch songs from time to time. (I just can't quit you, Cole Porter...)
I'm headed up to Boston in late June to do some more teaching for Berklee College of Music's Vocal Summit program. A few private house concerts and other events happening around then as well, stay tuned.
Duo gigs in Louisville, Chattanooga, Knoxville, Georgia, Alabama, the Carolinas and who knows where else - all are ahead.
In between bookings (and the hefty act of booking itself) we're taking turns recording sessions for various clients at home on the Pro Tools rig we got for our wedding via gift cards. Cute, huh?
FUNS! We're loving our life right now.
And finally: NEW CD SOON! I promise.
WesFest 5 at The Roxy (featuring Tal Wilkenfeld) posted - January 14, 2010
WesFest 5: A Concert to Benefit the Wes Wehmiller Scholarship at Berklee College Of Music is happening at on Sunday 2/28 at The Roxy in Hollywood
For 5 years now Bryan and I have been joining friends new and old to celebrate the life of Wes Wehmiller, our friend and contemporary at Berklee College of Music. Our way of celebrating is to rock the house and raise money for the scholarship at Berklee established in Wes' name. We've raised over $50,000 so far. Pretty rad, huh?
Speaking of rad, check out our headliner Tal Wilkenfeld (aka Jeff Beck's hot young Aussie chick bass player - WAY rad!!). She'll be playing with her own band: Oz Noy (guitar), John Beasley (keys) and Vinnie Colaiuta (drums). There's more info on my calendar page about the show
CAN'T ATTEND BUT STILL WANT TO CONTRIBUTE? We understand that there are plenty of you who won't be able to attend the event but still wish you could help out. We invite you to check out the WesFest 1 and WesFest 2 DVD's, as well as the one and only CD from Wes' band I, Claudius: Bleed (The Wes Demos). The sales of all these items also count towards the WesFest 5 fundraising total
