WHAT A FABULOUS SHOW LAST NIGHT ! 

I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON MY NEW MUSIC FOR QUITE SOME TIME NOW SO WHEN I GOT AN EMAIL SAYING THAT CAFÉ BLACKBIRD HAD A LAST MINUTE CANCELATION FOR HOSTING A MUSICAL NIGHT AND ART SHOW GALA I WAS ALL IN. 

ACTUALLY THEY WERE ORIGINALLY JUST LOOKING FOR A NEW ‘ARTIST OF THE MONTH’ BUT UPON CHECKING MY SOCIAL MEDIA SITES I GUESS MICHELLE AND CHRIS DISCOVERED ANOTHER ARTISTIC PASSION THAT I HAVE.  

I GOT TO WORK REHEARSING ( MEMORIZE, MEMORIZE, MEMORIZE) MY 11 NEW SONGS AND PERFORMED THEM WITH MY WONDERFUL SISTER, PAULA, AT MY SIDE AND LITERALLY , MY HUSBAND, TERRY ON THE OTHER SIDE. 

I DID THE FIRST SET WHICH WAS AN HOUR AND 15 MINUTES OF ALL NEW MUSIC.  TERRY DID THE SECOND SET WITH HIS NEW TUNES ( EXCELLENT!) AND THEN I JOINED HIM FOR THE LAST 3 SONGS. 

WE HAD A GREAT RESPONSE AND I FEEL BLESSED TO HAVE BEEN ABLE TO SHARE MY MUSIC WITH THIS GREAT CROWD OF FRIENDS AND ‘NEW FRIENDS’ . HOPEFULLY WE WILL SELL ALL THE PAINTINGS AND BE ABLE TO GIVE A HUGE CHEQUE TO THE WONDERFUL GROUP THAT FEEDS AND CLOTHES THE HOMELESS IN DOWNTOWN EDMONTON, MADONNA HOUSE.
