My new band demo

Yay! At last, my band demo is done! See? THAT'S why I cleared my calendar, so I could do these very important, yet time-consuming things! My beautiful daughter-in-law, Sarah, is in the video too! So's Charlie Overbey, Dana Garrett, Chad Quist, Madeline Cohen (and her husband Lew!) Steve Araujo, Richard Sumner, Guy Latham, Vince Cooper, and more!

Now to get lots of bookings and tours!

Not to mention I have several other videos to finish. My Halloween video (there's a sneak preview on the band video of my Halloween album!)and my Victoria Video.

And then maybe, just MAYBE.... I can get back in the studio and do what musicians are REALLY supposed to do-- write!!
Here's the video;

Moving forward

I did a really fun show last December and February with my band. I had my friend Beatrice videotape the shows, and I've been so busy with life, I never finished editing the videos (over five hours of video to edit to a ten minute video!) The past two days I really hunkered down and got it done. All it needs is polishing and a final note-taking view. So far so good! My eyes hurt, my back hurts, my head hurts, even my hair hurts! But its so worth it, because I got something done that is very important to me. I got my demo. Tomorrow if all goes well, I'll post it on my website and youtube, and then I'll start sending packages out to get the band booked!

I'm going for a walk on the beach now, with my husband. Life is good. By the way, for those of you not from San Diego, our ocean is glowing a bright blue at night lately. Bio-luminescence. It's incredible, and glows the color of a gracier, even (especially) in the pitch dark!

Taking a leap...

Sometimes life gets comfortable, you get into a routine, and before you know it, years have gone by. The past five years have brought magic to my personal life-- a wonderful husband, a new city (I LOVE YOU SAN DIEGO!!!) and a fresh circle of people to add to my list of dear friends.

Career-wise, I've sang my heart out as a solo act, and then I caught band fever, performing some exciting shows with an awesome band. I've just scratched the surface with my creativity and am ready to dedicate more time to writing and performing as an original artist. I've cleared my calendar. I even let go of my Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays at Albies. (We had a riot, didn't we? I miss you all, already, Albies gang!)

And, now, I am stepping onto a ledge, spreading my arms and sailing off in a new direction. Joyfully, happily, shouldering childlike faith (and some adult hard-knocks street smarts as well!) I'm taking that long first step forward.

Oh, and P.S. I just gave my website a long overdue facelift. Hope you check it out! www.rosewinters.com
