Rise

Man, life is so precious.  So many women I know right now are going through a lot.  Just waking up and getting through the day is a gift.  I know that through the cinder, a phoenix will rise.  Peace to you.  Music can heal.

Strawberry Smile

Yay March is here!  Yesterday, me and my family had strawberry short cake to just celebrate the month of March -yum!!  Yes, it's my birthday month, but also, I love March because it's a time when begin to see the world around us start to blossom.  I'm energized by this yearly rebirth and since my birthday falls in the middle of the month, I pretty much celebrate the whole 31 days!  Why not?  Not to mention SXSW always falls on my birthday and even though I have to share that with all of Austin, I do enjoy the conference and look forward to performing every year.  Please come to one or both of my FREE showcases.  No wristbands required.

Goodbye Chelsea

I remember the first time I discovered the Chelsea Hotel, it was when reading one of my favorite angry teenager reads And I Don't Want to Live This Life - the story of  Sid & Nancy by Nancy's mom, Deborah Spungen.  Although the Chelsea was a grim and dark scene described by Spungen, I became so curious about this place and soon learned that it was a haven for artists and dreamers like myself.  I dreamed of being there and never really outgrew that fantasy.  Almost 10 years later when I moved to NYC, I got to experience the Chelsea first hand.  


In 2002, my friend and photographer Hannah Neal came to the city to shoot many projects one of which at the time was my upcoming release Wish.  When in New York, Hannah stayed at the Chelsea like many photographers, musicians, and artists do and I couldn't wait to meet her there to begin our day of photos.  The moment I opened the rickety front door to enter into the lobby, I felt the electric vibe that saturates the hallways.  It lives up to grittiest of grit New York has to offer and yet, there's a alluring feeling there that makes you want to stay and be a part of it's rock and roll history.  I'm so sad to see it go.  Looks like new condos will be taking it's place.  Maybe there's still time for someone rescue this treasure.   


Enjoy some of our photos from that day in the photo section of my site.   


The Chelsea Hotel on West 23rd Street, a longtime haunt of artists and musicians, closed to guests on Sunday, and its future is uncertain.
