I seriously am having trouble believing that summer is winding down…it seems like just yesterday that I was doing rehearsals for the new CD back in May and June. Well, as the title of one of my new songs makes clear, time is an airplane — speeding faster than ever.
In terms of that new CD, Sleepless Lullaby, I should have the tracks ready to send to the printer by the end of next week, and should have it in my hot little hands by the end of the month. I certainly hope so, since I’ve set up a little “shoo” to celebrate its debut, on October 5 at Googie’s Lounge — above The Living Room — in Manhattan. But in any case I’ll be posting a few preview tracks here for everyone to listen to, hopefully in the next week or so!
I’ve also been busy booking some new shows…I’m excited to play at the Christopher Street Coffeehouse on September 9 — opening for the fabulous Joe Crookston — and I’ll be reuniting with my Sweet Bitters partner, Nina Schmir, for a show in Portland, Maine on October 2. And, in November, I’ll be headed to the Northeast Regional Folk Alliance conference where I’ll perform in various showcases and host one of my own.
My blog, Songwriting Scene, has taken up some time as well, as I’ve been newly devoted to keeping it up! All in all, it’s been a busy summer…but wonderful and fun and I’m so grateful for the good fortune that’s been shining on me lately in all areas of my life.
Hope to see you around!
