HAPPY 4th THURSDAY OF NOVEMBER DAY
SUBWAY SIREN ALERT! - BUSKING ON BLACK FRIDAY November 25th
SINGING WITH JAZZ TRIO ON SUNDAY 12/5
Greetings, Friends!
Hello from singer-songwriter Cassendre Xavier ("a cross between Tracy Chapman, Sade and Enya" - Borders Music Expert Steven M. Wilson)!
HAPPY 4th THURSDAY OF NOVEMBER DAY
I don't even know how to wish you a happy day today, because it's so rife with controversy. Yes, I understand what this day is in American history, all aspects of it, but can't I just wish folks that they enjoy their day, and that hopefully it's an off day and that if they're with their family of choice and/or origin, friends, or whomever they're spending time with, that they're (you're) enjoying yourselves?
Do I really have to receive text messages like the one that just beeped into my phone, "Happy Native American Massacre Day"? Why would I be "happy" about that?
Anyway, I'm enjoying a day off and I'm with my family and I'm keeping to my 50% raw vegan regimen, so I'm good. Hope you are, too!
SUBWAY SIREN ALERT! - BUSKING ON BLACK FRIDAY November 25th
Toomorrow's a big shopping day, Black Friday, November 25th, with some stores opening as early as 3AM - wow! Some of you may know that I busk (street/subway perform, in this case, sing and play the guitar) frequent weekdays from 3PM-6PM at Philadelphia's Suburban Station - in fact, this may even be how we met! I will be there tomorrow during my regular shift. If you're in the neighborhood shopping, please stop by! Designated Performance Area #1, directly below 17th Street & JFK Blvd.
SINGING WITH JAZZ TRIO ON SUNDAY 12/5
I've been a performing singer-songwriter-guitarist since 1991, a recording one since 1994 (first release in 2002), I've been a member of he Anna Crusis Women's Choir (the oldest feminist choir in the United States), and I've performed with various performers from rap artists to folk/rock artists. I've had a band twice, and I've played electric guitar in performance and in the studio. What I've never done is sing with a jazz band! I am very excited to report that I will be performing pop and rock songs arranged by Rich Santucci (who has performed my music before), along with one or two of my own songs, with Rich's jazz trio, the Santucci Trio. Details:
