Show Recap: Leftfield Post Turkey Jam
After lots of food and family, my band and I hopped on stage at Leftfield on Ludlow this past Saturday and put down a set of almost entirely new music! It was so amazing to hear these songs, written in a small apartment livingroom, come to life and sound like the world I live in. Much thanks to Alex Smith who co-wrote and co-produced these songs with me. Also thanks to Julian Litwack and Granville Mullings Jr. for their creativity and enormous talent.

Show Announcement: Live @ Leftfield - NOV. 28th
Hey all! Excited to announce that I'll be singing at Leftfield on Ludlow this Saturday, November 28th at 8PM. This is my first time this venue, so I'm excited to perform. Myself and my writing partner Alex Smith and been brewing up a lot of new stuff and as nerve racking as it is, we'll be throwing down a lot of those new tunes on this show!
As you're doing your Turkey Day prep, take a moment to mark your calendars for this performance. When Saturday night rolls around, take a break from too much food and possibly too much family and treat yo'self with some music!

WEEKEND RECAP
FRIDAY
Spent my Friday night in Harlem! It had been awhile since I'd been uptown and it felt so familiar. Despite all the changes and the gentrification, something about Harlem remains so black, so true and so good. Harlem Arts Festival was celebrating it's 5th Anniversary and I got to spend the evening listening to Divinity Roxx and India Carney play - lovely and so charismatic. My guys Granville and Julian backed up both ladies and killed - as usual. It was an honor to support this organization and to be supported by them. Also great to see so many familiar faces out doing the same.
SATURDAY
My bestie is having her first baby in January, so I spent Saturday hosting her baby shower. We basked in all her baby bump glory and jammed out to Spanish music with a little Brooklyn Biggie sprinkled in. Our friends Marlz and Anjali came all the way from AZ to surprise - priceless! Good friends, good food and lots of good vibes. So excited to meet this new little life!

SUNDAY
Missy and I have been really taking advantage of our Sunday's lately. We've been exploring our borough, eating lots of good food and spending quality time with friends. It's been really filling us up. We've gotta take advantage before this winter destroys our spirits. LOL Started out at Chavela's for brunch (again), swung by Corner Grind for a warm Chai latte and ended at Bedford Hall for some football and Laguanitas. Perfect Sunday!
