What a great year! I beatboxed with an Irish Step Team, had my first radio interview, and serenaded folks at Farmers’ Markets. I got a Facebook fan page www.facebook.com/themsqueenearth. I watched guitar students come and go, and come back. I had some great shows and some educational moments. I’m a better teacher, musician, friend, and hopefully, a better businesswoman. Thank you for following QueenEarth!
I hope to see you this Saturday December 17, 2011 @ 8-10:30pm for Janice B’s CD release party at Teavolve (1401 S Aliceanna) QueenEarth is hosting, that’s me! The Stinkiface Band will be there…Native Son…NO COVER! Bring $10 to get your copy of the CD!! FB event page http://www.facebook.com/events/133573480079966/
My new friend, Eli, from the West Coast is touring the area. December 18, 2011 @7-9pm is Constance Sisk & Eli Conley in Baltimore! w/ QueenEarth & Brooks Long at Gallery 788 $5. Eli Conley has a country choirboy voice and a singer/songwriter’s sincerity. He crafts songs that ride the rail between indie folk and alt-country from the raw material of his life as a gay transgender man with Virginia roots. – http://www.eliconley.com/ This is gonna be a crazy evening of eclectic electric proportions. http://www.facebook.com/events/280633468635272/
In the new year:
No more weekly Bohemian Dinner Party 🙁 We are changing the format. It will still be every Wednesday, but we will do it on the last Wednesday of each month 🙂 There will be a $2 charge for the show. Half goes to the host, the other half goes to the feature. The first one is December 28, 2011@ 7-9pm. I hope to see you there. Stay updated on the page for more information about features. If you’d like to feature, let me know on the wall! www.facebook.com/events/276494429037863/
I’m starting a new monthly Saturday series at Terra Cafe. The first show is January 21, 2012 @ 8-10pm. The evening kicks off QueenEarth & Friends at Terra Cafe (101 E 25th St) Doors are at 7pm. For $5, you get me and 2 of my favorite homies in the music scene. It could be musicians, singers, poets, or all of the above. The first show features me and Irv Madden on bass and Alex Madden on drums. This will be a helluva dinner party. Stay tuned for more QueenEarth & Friends shows. If you want more information, stop by Terra Cafe on a Friday from 12-2pm. I’m still doing my lunch gig. Family first! www.theterracafe.com
What else? I’m booking guitar students for Winter and Spring sessions and planning an Ohio Valley tour for early January. That’s right around the corner!! Also, be on the lookout for my new line of promotional materials. Shout out to VistaPrint for the great prices and Mark Petinga for the photography. My EP is back up on itunes.
