SLEEPY SUNDAY

It’s just another sleepy Sunday morning here in Manhattan.  I'm getting ready to make a big batch of blueberry chocolate chip waffles and write a few tunes before regular rehearsals start again Monday morning. 

I play in a band with my two younger sisters, Gabriela and Dominique, whom I adore! I'll probably talk A LOT about them in my upcoming entries.

We've just returned from our gig in Park City, Utah, where we were asked to play THE NEW YORK LOUNGE at The Sundance Film Festival. We caught two midnight screenings of the films "The Merry Gentleman"(starring, and directed by Michael Keaton) and "Slingshot Hip Hop", a documentary on Palestinian rappers.  

Our dear friend Loretta runs this fantastic music cafe on the main street for ASCAP. I saw several great artists there...check them out: Seawolf, Paddy Casey, Sondre Lerche, Justin Pierre from Motion City Soundtrack, our new pal Pat Monahan (amazing lead singer from the band Train), musicians Louis & Jerry who are A W E S O M E, and the legendary Patty Smith. Patty brought the house down. It takes a real rocker chick to spit on stage...I just feel bad for the fan that had to wipe it off his cheek!

If that’s not enough, I got to see my best friend "Charlotte Sometimes” rock out before my show.

Following AVENUE B's forty-minute set we boarded our flight back home to NYC. All in all, the trip was worth it, especially after my favorite celebrity sighting, JACK BLACK.
