I hope everyone had a great week! I've been in bed all week with the flu, but I wanted to send something out this week even if it's brief. Thanks to everyone who came out to my Chicago show last week at Silvie's, I had a wonderful time and it was great to see so many familiar faces and meet new ones.

Today we lost another great artist, the talented Sharon Jones. She had been battling cancer for many years and unfortunately it took her life. She was 60 years old. Take a moment to check out her gifts below.

2016 has not been kind to our brothers and sisters in music. For those of us left behind we have records to listen to and inspiration to fuel our own creations.

Hopefully I'll be back on my feet in a few days and can write something more substantial next week. Take care! xo

PS: GO GET A FLU SHOT.
