Back into the swing of things!

Well, life has been back to normal (somewhat) this last week since I returned from my tour. Gaby and I drove straight through from Green Bay, WI to Westport, CT last Monday night, arriving at 3:30 a.m. - 18 hours door to door! Needless to say, we slept in the next morning. But other than that day off I've been putting in some hours getting ready for the new school year (lessons and my choirs start this week) and booking/promoting my upcoming shows.

Today I played at a farmers market here in Westport, and had such a great time. I sold some CD's met some nice people, and received many gifts from the farmers (lettuce, carrots, apples, peaches, peppers, the list goes on and on!). We enjoyed a fabulous salad tonight for dinner (thanks to chef, Bryan!) If you live around here - the market is held in the Westport Playhouse parking lot on Thursday's from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. You should come, they have great stuff, plus I'll hopefully be singing there in the weeks to come.

So...coming up this weekend!

Saturday night I'm playing in New York at The National Underground (9 p.m.!). This is my first BIG show in the city, so come if you can - I could use some friendly faces!

Then Sunday night I'm playing in Litchfield, CT at Bohemian Pizza and Dittos at 9 p.m - this is going to be a nice low-key night with delicious pizza and drinks. You won't want to miss it.

One last favor, I'm trying to get "Time" played on a local radio station here in Connecticut called WZBG. If you have a few spare moments, would you send an e-mail with this request to: requests@wzbg.com or call them directly at 1-800-374-5888? Thanks so much! I appreciate it. Even if you don't live in the area - they'll never know! I just need a little help getting myself some "air" time.

I'll keep you posted with my upcoming shows and crazy life changes as they come.

Enjoy the weekend!
