Hi friends!
I'm not sure where you live, but it feels like summer over here and I couldn't be happier! In fact, I've become obsessed with all the beautiful flowers around my neighborhood ...including the ones in my backyard (see above photo). They're actually weeds...but not to me!
Well, this Spring has been a real treat thus far! Alot of really cool things have been happening, now that I've come out of hiding (no thanks to winter) and begun to play more in the Greater Philly area. A few cool media opportunities popped up last week, including a written interview with WNYC - the NPR affiliate in New York City. This was a pretty exciting thing for me! You can check out all that stuff to the left.
NEW VIDEO!
Thanks for all the great feedback on the video I released last month for Promised Land. You can still check it out below (to the left). This month I have something else for you - a LIVE version of the song 'Happy'. There might be a little Ella Fitzgerald-esque scatting involved :)
 CALENDAR
This summer i'll be staying close to home, writing alot, and filming a music video!! More to come on that! I'll also be playing the occasional music festival and local/regional house concerts. If you're toying with the idea of hosting a summer house concert, please let me know! I'd love to :)
JUNE 19 - Junebug ArtsFest - Metuchen, NJ
JULY 4 - Escape to the Lake (road trip alert!) - Williams Bay, WI [details]

With love,
Joy
