Summer Everyday!

What a summer! What a summer! 

This past Saturday, I was reunited with my Woman Songwriter Collective sister, Lisa Marie Ellingsen. Lisa just finished kicking ass in Nursing School and A NEW ALBUM IS IN THE WORKS. Lisa & I took part in  Florence Night Out this year, which is an awesome little festival that takes place in the sleepy, lovely town of Florence. We got to perform at Cafe Evolution, the best little vegan bakery in the Valley as far as I'm concerned. I got to play a beautiful, old upright and even a little guitar for my set. Lisa played afterwards and played some of her originals, which let me tell you, are beautiful pieces of music. Lisa has such a clever way with words. From bank robberies of the Old West, to political disbelief and heartbreak, Miss Ellingsen is a force to be reckoned with. To end the evening, we played a few old blues songs together, including "Trouble In Mind" and "St. James Infirmary." I also had a mind-blowing, Mint Chocolate Chip cupcake. 

Check out all things Lisa here.

The next day, I was joined by my BFF Madeline for a show at Java Madness, one of my favorite spots in Rhode Island. We woke up at the ass-crack of dawn to get there for a nice, early noontime set, which was an absolute delight and totally worth waking up super early for! The staff is was so friendly & we both got to enjoy some delicious bagels. 


I got to whip out one of my newer guitar songs, "The Road" at both shows this weekend, which felt awesome. Maddie also played a newer tune called "Pile Of Bones" that touches on social anxiety with vivid, creepy, Tim Burton style imagery. It blew me away. 


Maddie and I concluded our trip with a super flower child beach adventure. Despite the rain, we jumped right into the ocean! We even got to play some guitar and serenade the disgruntled beach-goers with some Hank Williams. All in all, it was an awesome, fucking day. There is nothing better than getting to share your passion with your best friend. Making music with people you love is such a rewarding and magical experience.

Miss Madeline & her band Street Change will be releasing their sophomore album, "Gone Downtown," on July 11th at the 13th Floor Music Lounge.  The show will be absolutely killer! Also performing will be Shanta Paloma, Father Misty and the Big Rock & I'll be playing too! 

Hold yourself over until then with this awesome video of their song "Regina"!

Hello again! I hope yins are enjoying your Summer so far! 
I've been hard at work planning the album release, the tour that will follow and TRYING to set up an email list! Technology frightens me greatly, but I think I figured it out! Head over to the "Contact" page and you can sign up if you wish. I promise I won't send you too many emails! 

I head the pleasure of sharing a bill with Carson O'Keeffe, a new songstress on the scene here in the Valley, at my old stompin ground, Sam's Pizza. Carson has a sweet, angelic honey voice and writes beautiful, sometimes heart breaking songs. It was a beautiful, mid-June evening and we got to play with the doors of the restaurant wide-open, which is prime for people watching!  We had a lovely turn-out! 

Miss Carson hails from Baltimore, Maryland but now lives here in the Valley.  She also plays in a duo with Jack Dwyer.  Carson is currently working on assembling some songs together for an E.P which I CAN'T WAIT TO HEAR. Carson has made me cry on several occasions with her beautiful, tender songs. 

Our friend Cailtin Shea got some video of the show! 

Here is Carson's original tune "The Cave:" 


& here is some "Sweet Moon" for you!  Sorry for the motorcycle madness in the middle! 


In other news, you can now pre-order the new 7" record, due to be released for realsies on September 13th!
I have a HUGE release show planned and will be releasing the info VERY SOON! I'm so proud of this 7" and I can't believe I get to release music onto my favorite format once again!
