April 2012

I haven't been able to update the blog on the website cause of all the things that have been happening.  We've had some changes in the band and some surprises too!  Things are going too fast and furious and it's all good!

I am so happy and grateful for all the good stuff that's been happening!

2012 Quebec Lys Blues Nominee for Best Female Artist (Artiste Féminin),
2012 Quebec Lys Blues Nominee for Blues Album & Associated Styles of the Year (Album Blues & Styles Associés de l'Année),
2011 Nominee for Best International Release by Blues 411 (USA) 

Winners are decided by the public and that means YOU. Here's the website to vote, just click: Le Net Blues.  Voting is done by email, the how-to instructions are on the page.  So please vote, deadline is April 15th. Winners will be announced at a gala on April 22nd at Theatre Plaza, 6505 rue St-Hubert, Montreal.  Tickets 20$ at the door or if you drop by Bistro a Jojo during the day, you can pick up some pre-sale tickets for 10$ each.

Changes! We have a new guitarist!  Rami Cassab has joined the fold and has already put a tasty touch to our repertoire.  Rami is well known in the local blues circuit and we are honoured that he's now part of the Carolyn Fe Blues Collective.  As we work on our third album - yep, you read right - OUR 3rd ALBUM, Rami is adding a nice twist to our new songs.

APRIL GIGS: April 27 at 8:30pm, we play Upstairs Jazz Bar & Grill.  It's a full band gig, all 5 of us.  We'll be doing our repertoire with a blues/jazz twist. Address:  1254 Mackay, Montreal, H3G 2H4, Tickets: 16.50, at the door

IN THE NEWS:  An exposé from Your Local Journal (West Island Edition, page 14) and a reportage by Tatie Blues about our debut show in Quebec City's La Casbah where we had a really great time!  Standing ovations, encores and lots of love! We will definitely be back to Quebec City!

There's more news bits but between radio and print interviews, rehearsals, writing (and starting a new business venture), I can't keep up. I promise to keep you posted as soon as I can.

Other shows are noted on the SHOWS / GIGS page of this site. By the way, have you purchased your copy of "Original Sin" yet? ;-)
