I have a few solo sets booked in the coming weeks – I must confess that I’ve been a little out of the loop from the whole live looping thing but trying to get back into it as I type this. also writing more songs – I mean SONGS. ever since the quake there’s been a lot of thoughts that’s been going through my head, and to be honest I’ve had doubts in my career decisions from feeling so helpless and powerless. but I’m slowly coming to an agreement with my senses to draw some kind of conclusion that all I can do is to live my life to its fullest without being ignorant of the events that affect many lives. Flying Platforms will most likely have a show in late May when Spils recovers from his surgery, meanwhile I’ll focus more on my solo act and I hope you guys can make it out to some of these dates.
I’ll be singing a few tunes for another Japan Earthquake and Tsunami Relief in South Pasadena on April 28th THU. “There will be cultural exchange booths that your kids will enjoy and also exhibitions for everyone to study what is happening at shelters and with orphans and pets in affected areas.There will be the South Pasadena Farmers Market happening on the same block. And plenty of nice cafes/restaurants in old town South Pasadena.” the address is 1115 El Centro St., South Pasadena CA 91030 and it starts at 4pm. I’m scheduled go on around 8pm. Facebook page is here.
then for OC folks, I’ll be playing Common Ground on May 5th THU at Vietnamese American Arts and Letters Association (VAALA) Center. I don’t come out to OC enough (used to play jazz gigs down in Tustin) so it’ll be a fun night. come out around 7:30pm. Facebook Page is here. what did we do before Facebook? it’s annoyingly convenient.
I’m also doing a Kollaboration @ LCD Pavilion at Atlantic Times Square the night after on May 6th FRI. I’ll be sharing a bill with a few finalists for the Kollaboration Acoustic a Ford Amphitheatre. SGV peeps should take notes on this special occasion, and I’ll make sure that I’ll pick up a Vietnamese coffee afterwards.
here’s a video from my past solo performance.
