Having problems with message search?
*Catherine Moon, Robin Renée, and Chrisie Santoni at the Unitarian Society of New Brunswick - Saturday, July 31st - See info below!*
Hello! I hope this message full of stuff to see, hear, & do finds you well. I am well these days- balanced and in the mood to write. I was feeling a bit artistically blocked for a while, and thankfully, that seems to have left as mysteriously as it came on. I think it is a very complex formula that governs these things.
I have been bouncing off walls happy over the last few days, still basking in the afterglow of seeing my favorite band in Central Park... DEVO! Equally fun was to have had the opportunity to do a brief phone interview with Jerry Casale in advance of the show for The Courier News, for whom I write often these days. I know, I know... "Cling To You" doesn't exactly sound like it's heavily influenced by "Whip It." :-) Maybe the influence is more cultural than sonic; I love the alternative worlds created by my favorite artists, no matter how disparate some of them may be.
Anyway... on to your upcoming assignments...
PLEASE don't miss this acoustic show on Saturday!

The Unitarian Society is a great listening space and I am truly happy to be performing with Catherine Moon and Chrisie Santoni, wonderful songwriters both. WOVEN (Women of Vision Entertainment Network) is a fledgling organization of women singer-songwriters and we'd love to see some support, meet some other interested artists, and hear what kinds of events you'd like to see in the future (See press release below.). Someone e-mailed me with a concern, so rest assured, although this show features female artists, ALL ARE WELCOME. See you there!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Musical Magic is WOVEN in July for Celebrated Women Artists
The world can look a little daunting today for the average independent musician. No one is quite sure how most of us will receive or purchase our music in the not-too-distant future-Will we buy CDs or share computer files? More difficult still for many is the homogenous sound of radio where less-than-confrontational pop rules the day. The women of WOVEN (Women of Vision Entertainment Network) carry the torch of the relevant and determined singer-songwriter with power, integrity, and great talent. Three of the organization's best known and loved performers-Catherine Moon, Robin Renée, and Chrisie Santoni will grace The Unitarian Society of New Brunswick with an intimate acoustic show on July 31st at 7pm.
The music of Catherine Moon veers from ethereal dreaminess to hard-edged soul. With a vocal delivery that's powerfully expressive and often shades into the spiritual, she sings her vision of a just and sustainable world. Robin Renée dubs her assertive and soulful material "Mantra-pop," as the sonic impact of Indian devotional chant weaves through her passionate medium of edgy rock, lyricism, and accessibility. Her latest CD, produced by the world-renowned Scott Mathews, is "All Six Senses." Chrisie Santoni's clear-as-a-bell voice reveals the deeply personal as it wraps itself around songs of heartache, confusion, and love. She was the Grand Prize winner of the Unisong International Songwriting Contest and received First Place in the John Lennon Songwriting Contest earlier this year.
WOVEN, an emerging organization for women musicians, is a network for New Jersey regional and local artists to work together for greater career impact. The work of the women, each in her own way, is marked by a deep interest in affecting positive impact on the greater community. In April, WOVEN co-sponsored "Jammin' With Jody," an all ages kid jam with Jody Joseph and the Average Joes, Patty Blee, Chrisie Santoni, and Kathy Phillips. The show was a benefit for the Jersey Jams Fund, a United Way music education program. As WOVEN evolves, other benefits and community-centered events will be on the horizon for these rising stars.
Catherine Moon, Robin Renée, and Chrisie Santoni are available for interview. For more information, visit the artist's websites: www.catherinemoon.com, www.robinrenee.com, www.csantoni.com.
