I’m excited to announce that my year in music is starting off performing for an intimate event entitled, Love Notes, hosted by the Lake Geneva Chapter, Lyric Opera of Chicago. I will be collaborating with two wonderful musicians: Pianist, Celeste Rue and Soprano, Kimberly E. Jones https://www.kimberlyejonessoprano.com.

Well, happy 2016! I know I’m a little late, but as they say, better late then never. I’m excited for this year and some exciting things that will be happening. I’m looking forward to recording even more new music in New York City. I have a few surprises up my sleeve and look forward to sharing them with you. I will be sure to let you all know where to find me (think “Where’s Waldo”). I invite you to keep […]
July 4 at 10:30 p.m., I will be singing “The Star-Spangled Banner” at Kollen Park & Heinz Waterfront Walkway for Holland’s Celebration Freedom. It’s always thrilling to sing for thousands of people and all the while fireworks being displayed above, especially for the line, “And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air, gave proof through night that our flag was still there.” This day is about celebrating our freedom and independence, which we fought so hard for. Also, […]
I am excited to announce that Bradley Wisk and B-Rad Productions, LLC will be producing a concert on May 1 in West Michigan. This is the first city within the multiple series tour. I am planning to tour nationally with this show, showcasing local musicians from each city. Some of the cities in sight are New York City, Nashville, Chicago, San Francisco, and Los Angeles. I will be debuting new songs produced in New York City, along with other genres […]
Happy New Year everyone! One of my New Year’s resolutions is to blog more… I know I’ve left you all wondering what I’m up to. So let me take a few moments to fill you in. 2014 was a very exciting year, from being a part of ABC’s The Bachelorette, to launching a new project in NYC, to my Carnegie Hall debut, to singing the Star Spangled Banner for the third year in a row for the Fifth Third Turkey […]
We watch lights flicker and dance while we are warmed by a cosy fire as snow gently falls outside our windows. It is a magical season, a season of romance, gratitude, and delight. It is a time where we can extend ourselves to others, spreading a message of joy and peace. Yes, it’s only the beginning of November (we’ve already experienced the first snow in West Michigan), but I am gearing up for a spectacular holiday event with the City […]
The city of Detroit has experienced numerous changes over the years. Going from an industrial empire made famous by Henry Ford and the development of the automobile, to a struggling city on the cusp of bankruptcy, to a rallying community fighting for survival against cultural and fiscal demise, this town is still an iconic image of American history and perseverance. As community that prides itself on diversity and fortitude, it moves forward with hopeful hearts and new visions for a […]
The Grand Rapids community in West Michigan is home to world renowned art competitions, breweries, farm-to-fork dining, and sophisticated music and entertainment. It is also known for its innovation and philanthropic endeavors focused and designed to better the urban experience. It’s not what you would expect from a small community far from the excitement, ambition, and progressiveness of New York, Los Angeles, or Chicago. With a strong economy and dynamic thinkers, this area has put itself on the map, and […]
I enjoyed my time performing at The What Not Inn this past Monday evening. It was a pleasure to perform with other fantastic musicians from around the country, and it is always an exhilarating experience singing the old classics of Sinatra. The evening was dedicated to one of my favorite fans, Rusty, who has been an inspiration to me. Traveling all by herself through the back roads of West Michigan, this phenomenal eighty-four-year-old young woman, came to see me perform… […]
This past Friday evening, I celebrated my father’s birthday at the Annex/Coral Gables in Saugatuck, Michigan. I was invited to perform several numbers by Frank Sinatra, allowing me to share my heart with my family and many new friends. This takes me back to an era I love, and it is a pleasure to be able to share that with an audience. There’s just something magical about the 1950’s… The era of class when people danced, sang, dressed, and carried […]
