It seems time has been passing in a whirl. Quick stream of consciousness/play by play description of the past month:
We played 6 shows with Ozomatli! They are amazing and such nice guys and musicians. Above is a picture of Ulises sitting in with us in New York City (on the song There Was a Time) (photo

We did our first music video shoot, for the song Came Out of a Lady. It was a blast, literally. A day-long blast for the band and a huge group of lovely friends who came out to help. All at the end of a MONTH-LONG blast for Dave Cole (our drummer who directed the video) and me (I sewed this giant lady head thingy that you can see in the photo below, courtesy of Ms. Yuan Liu. With the help of eye and mouth ((and lots of other feautres)) expert gea*). It was an awesome, inspiring and cathartic group effort, and none of us can wait to see the resulting video.
We played on a boat! It was ridiculous. Thanks the the crew of hard-core partiers who came to keep us company and share with us a mutual body-rock session. Here is what it looked like for those of you who couldn't be there.
We're heading into summer now, jumping into the van and getting ready to hit High Sierra music festival in California, and a number of other West Coast parties.... I hope I can promise that I will keep you all privy to our adventures. I CAN say that I will at least TRY.
The road is bumpy, the music is loud, the snacks are as salty as sweat in a crowd. Our hips get all sore, our lips turn all blue. But over and over we do it FOR YOU!
Love,
Kalmia
