Happy April! 🌷🌷🌷
Hope you didn’t get fooled too bad... but if so, I hope it was hilarious! 😀 I personally didn’t get fooled, more like celebrated! During my show last Saturday, I was given a painting by Katie Lowe. Katie and Paul of Lowe’s Portraits are a talented couple that both paint portraits of musicians – famous and local – and gift them the paintings! Katie painted me as part of their Women of the Blues series – they’ve done everyone from Bonnie Raitt and Samantha Fish to some of my Boston blues sisters like Danielle Miraglia, Toni Lynn Washington, and Ilana Katz Katz. Thanks Katie, what a cool surprise and a wonderful gift!
This week is busy, as we finish packing, and do a few final shows in the Northeast US before we leave for our European tour. We’re quite excited – it’s been several years since we’ve been “across the pond” – we were all set to go in 2020, but that got cancelled... We’re so glad to finally be returning!
Before we leave next Tuesday, we have a few fun New England shows – so come on down if you’re around, and wish us a bon voyage!
- Friday 4/5 we swing through Springfield (Swingfield) MA with the Delta Swingers at Theodore’s Blues, Booze & BBQ (9pm)
- Saturday 4/6 is CBD at The Porch Southern Fare & Juke Joint in Medford, MA (1-4pm)
- And Sunday 4/7 is CBD at Blue Sundays at The Red Parka in Glen, NH (5-8pm)
The Tour: I put together a little map of where we’ll be going, with a list of all the venues & ticket links – check it out below! I hope to see you, if you happen to be anywhere nearby in the UK or Spain! (And feel free to share with any friends in these areas.)
And don’t forget, no matter where you live, you can keep up with our adventures at our Facebook page!
