Strange Life.
When I started this little writing experiment last Fall it was because I wanted to document my first gig as a back-up vocalist. On the biggest concert tour in history. Also, Greg Garbo from the Jonas Brothers and Miley’s keyboard player, Mike Schmid were both blogging so I felt it was my responsibility to talk about myself too, because lordy knows they were not going to talk about me nearly enough for my liking. I have a track on Weaponize called Strange Life so I christened my blog with that title. It seemed fitting.
Here we are, 10 months later and my life has never been stranger. I mean this in a good way. It is a rare thing, indeed, for a person to have a career and personal life that so vastly blows away anything that mere imagination could concoct.
For example, this was how I spent last Friday morning, courtesy of Vashon’s iPhone at The Today Show in NYC as we prepared to soundcheck for Miley’s set.
nadia and me get ready to shake them asses.
In other news, my girlies from the late, lamented Shut Up Stella continue to kick ass and take names on their solo projects. Jessie Malakouti just released this video for the song, Trash Me. She wrote, produced and financed the video by herself which is a stunning accomplishment no matter what the final result. The fact that it looks gorgeous is frosting, baby. Check my little sis out:
Dinner at Hungry Cat tonight with USA, Ryan McMillan and his wife Alana. So excited.
