Dear Friends
No New Year's resolutions this year, just gratefulness for so many new friends, musical encounters, and inspiring projects, can't wait to see what 2024 has in store.
Some of my favorite 2023 moments:
January - JEN Conference in Orlando, coming up this Jan 3-7 in New Orleans
February - Talking Jazz Live with Ronan Guilfoyle as part of the Artistic Research Conference at the Jam Music Lab University Vienna
March - Jazz Girls Day and International Women's Day Concert, we'll do it again March 8 and 9, 2024 in Vienna, and January 22 at Noblesville High School, signups open.
April - on US Tour with Both Sides of Joni for the whole month, two more shows coming up January 19/20, 2024 in Columbus, IN, TICKETS
May - got myself an E-Bike to conquer beautiful Austria
June - Both Sides of Joni in Europe from Berlin to Vienna
July - Festival Time - Canaris Jazz!
August - Tribute Concert to Janiece Jaffe in Bloomington
September - Sheroes #4 Recording Sessions with Lenny White, to be released in June 2024, get ready for a great set of music, release tour dates will be announced soon, contact me if you're interested in featuring a Sheroes concert.
October - Jazz Girls Day at Hannover Jazzwoche, we'll be back!
November - London Jazz Festival, we'll be back!
December - Solo Piano in Prague, audio and video coming soon.
Thanks to all of you who were part of the journey and who allow me to connect via this newsletter. I love to hear your updates and feedback - email any time.
Look for a Kickstarter Campaign in January to pre-order the upcoming Sheroes album and help us cover the production costs. And I hope to see many friends at the Columbus Philharmonic Jazz at Helen's Series January 19 and 20 with Alexis Cole, Jeremy Allen, Peter Kienle, and Cassius Goens or January 12 at the Chatterbox with the Acoustic Project.
Finally, for the audio connoisseur:
