UPDATES, UPDATES!

May 24th was the BIG MEMORIAL WEEKEND JAM at the Indigo Lounge. The night was FYAH! Shout out to The Emily Cohn Jazz Quartet who jammed hard all night long. What a magnificent band who will definitely be performing with us again. Mike The Poet ripped the stage first and the crowd went wild as he represented the westcoast. Evy Trezvant and George Mcdonald's sensual, poetic duet had the audience swooning in delight. The other poets were just as amazing! The funky sound of Dj Sol kept it popn' till… Continue

Or maybe it's piano lessons for several years, and self taught bass lines. Maybe it's beca… Continue

HAVE YOU EVER STOOD NAKED IN FRONT OF YOURSELF?

YOU HAVE YOUR OWN MOUNTAINS TO CONQUER, YOUR OWN DREAMS TO FULFILL, BUT YOU WILL NEVER HAVE THE ENERGY TO PURSUE THEM UNTIL YOU RELEASE YOURSELF FROM ALL THE EXPECTATIONS YOU'VE GATHERED FROM OTHERS BUT NOW THINK ARE YOUR OWN. STRIVING TOWARDS TRUTH IS NOTHING BUT CREATING MORE CONFUSION. THE TRUTH HAS NOT TO BE ACHIEVED. IT CANNOT BE ACHIEVED, IT IS ALREADY THE CASE. ONLY THE LIE HAS TO BE DROPPED. LOOK DEEP INTO THE LIE OF YOUR PERSONALITY. BECAUSE TO SEE THE LIE IS TO CEASE THE LIE. THE MOMEN… Continue
