Hey music lovers,
I've got some exciting announcements to share with you all!
Firstly, my guitarist Serj is releasing his song called “The Grey” on May 16. I had the privilege of recording vocals for his duet at Backroom Studios last year. It's the first time I've contributed my voice to a hard rock kind of song so I'm excited to officially add the genre to my singing portfolio. Click here to pre-save his song!
As for my upcoming performances in New Jersey, on May 17 my band and I will be participating in Montclair Porchfest. It's a unique kind of music festival where homeowners allow their porches to become temporary stages so local bands can fill the streets with live music. We'll be stationed at 252 N Mountain Ave in Montclair, and I'll be singing my songs at 12 pm. Two bands will be performing after us so I look forward to the networking opportunities.
In June, my band will be performing at Herbal Root Organics once again. We were the first musical act to grace the apothecary cafe's studio space where yoga sessions and other workshops are usually hosted. Lauryn, the business owner, does an amazing job at preparing a healthy menu for her live events which is why we decided to call our event “Boards and Ballads.” She will provide the veggie and charcuterie boards and I will sing the ballads - dinner and a show! We'll be performing on June 7 at 6 pm. If you'd like to order a ticket (only 25 people can fit inside the studio), then click here to be transferred to her website.
My friend, Katrina Jenisch, took amazing pictures of our first show in April. I'm grateful she could capture the magic of our live performance. I enjoyed using my new vocal pedal from TC Helicon to enhance my voice with echo, reverb and correction. I placed the pedal on top of my Focusrite interface which is fitting because they match in their similar shades of red.
I'd love if you can make it to one of my upcoming shows! Definitely stream “The Grey” when it releases, it is such a thoughtful (and heart-wrenching) song and I'm happy I could be a part of its recording. I personally relate to its song-lyrics so it was a meaningful project for me.
