Such a busy weekend! Can't wait! More info TBA

2 things to point out.. 

1. This will be my 3rd scheduled performance at THE London Chop House (say what???)

2. Aug 31st is my birthday..So happy to have Susie Woodman, keys, and Jef Reynolds, bass, joining me...my birthday wishes have already come true!

Bruce and I are super happy to perform at Third Monk again. What a listening room! What a generous portion of mini beers for their sampler! "What brewery, I've lived here more than a decade..." Oh yes! There is a tiny local brewery that platinum recording engineer, Jeff, owns and he puts as much care into his beers as he does his sound quality from those performing. Can't wait to be back. 

It's about time Detroit takes a bite of the Dream Cruise pie...plus.. more cars and more music...could any weekend be more Detroit? Honored to be slingin those harmonies alongside chart topping teen heart throb of the 60's, Scott Morgan, and his supreme backing band. Plus how cool is it to say that I opened for Reverend Horton Heat?!?!

More info following.. until then.. https://motorcitymuscle.us/

How do encourage conversation about the foster care of children in Michigan? You bring art and music in on the topic and naturally love attracts. Dream cruise will be poppin, and The Pontiac Creative Arts Center is right in the middle of it all. Stop on by to lift your spirits!

Being "Detroit's Backup Singer" has given me countless opportunities to perform with top notch artists in outstanding venues. Well this event is no exception and, though a bit under the radar, hits the mark on all those perks of being a backing vocalist.

Jack White is the king of "if you know, you know" taste making, so I won't give out too many details about the performance,  except that The Algebra Mothers will be releasing an LP this evening.  And I'll leave ya with this..local fe-rocker Queen bee and I will be "nuns in chains"?!?

Well the life of Detroit's Backup Vocalist can certainly get busy at times... and YAY for that! practicing lyrics and harmonies for 2 different projects this week. Honored to have local professional bass player, Mo Hollis, ask me to join Mortal Soul for a secret showcase. sshhh.. Not open to the public, but if ya message me, I can get you in. Mortal Soul is an adult band (all 9-5ers) with sweet harmonies, moving lyrics, and positive energies... afterall  "the jubillee is waiting and we got to get to this circus down the road"

From the west side to the east side... you can find Bruce & I sharing our harmonies all over the tri-county area!! Happy to be back at Floodz on the patio... not sure I'll make a round of golf this time, but I know I'm lookin forward to that brick oven pizza!

Do you like John Cougar as a front man, do you like Ryan Adam's songwriting, do you like Joe Cocker's backing band??? Well then you are bound to hop on the JJLD train. We'll be rockin it out this Saturday opening up for Detroit's premier party band, The Killer Flamingo's.

Come on out to the lil town of South Lyon. Great beer, great tunes! Stamp your craft beer postcard.

When a bunch of hard drinkin, music lovin good people decide to put together a festival..just for the heck..or HELL of it, you just know it's gon be a good time. I mean.. it's live music, bbq, friends you don't know offerin you shots, and it's all in HELL (Michigan that is)!!! I can't wait!!!

P.S. This is kinda a private event...but it's annual, so get to know those involved!

You know, sometimes you just have to book yourself the big gigs once in a while just to make sure you're still on the right path. Nothing against the farmer's markets and corner busking, but sometimes you just need to share your vocals to the finer diners. The London Chop House is just "oozing with history". Just found out it was considered one of the top 10 restaurants in the 60's by THE James Beard. Yah sure that's a long time ago, but that wouldn't stop this classy joint from keeping up with the times. Sure it's still located in the basement on Congress, but it's guests have included everyone from Frank Sinatra and Jimmy Hoffa to Kid Rock and Barbara Streisand (likely on Barbara tip.. she used to perform at what was the caucus club across the street back when her career was just beginning) and everyone who's everyone else has popped on by at least once for a special meal.

Who doesn't love a weekend festival? And now you add dogs to the situation?!?! I'm in!! This weekend raises money for local shelters, offers safe adoptions, and PLENTY of vendors for our 4 legged family members! Oh yah.. music and Tito's too. Oh.. wait.. how could I forget.. there's an air dog jumping competition?!?

If any city on this planet knows how to make music, it has got to be Detroit. And so I'm pretty psyched to be backing Joe Jaber (pronounced jabber) on some vocals at The Ford Stage next to Music Hall for Detroit Music Weekend. We go on at 2 sharp for a short set, but the day consists of performances from Jeff Daniels and The Jacksons to local feministas Audra Kubat and Stffanie Chris'tian! Happy to be right in the middle of it all..

Well Bruce and I have performed at the Birmingham Farmer's Market and always have a blast, so we're making the rounds.. This time things are a bit switched up. The city of Troy has their farmer's market available on Fridays, which I kinda love... no waking at the crack o dawn to get those fresh eggs... instead stroll on by after work and get your groceries before the weekend begins! Look for us around the Troy Public Library.

There's just something about O'mara's that perfectly defines Berkley. Could it be the secret fairy door (kid friendly), or the fabulous women's bathroom (no joke... see it to believe it) or maybe the balance of a good bar along and delicious meals in the dining room (regulars everywhere!). And along with all of that, an outdoor patio that combines everything with LIVE MUSIC!!

Well Susie and I are still on a high for being nominated for Outstanding Modern Jazz Group for the Detroit Music Awards and we can't wait to share with you what we do!! We promise, singalongs, kazoo solos, originals tunes, and a couple guest vocalists joining us! 

Stop on by, or make a reservation for a (table near the band).
