Bienvenidos al Nuevo Mexico!
Ah the homeland. I grew up in the Land of Enchantment, and while I appreciate the many things Austin has to offer, I miss the mountains, the chile, and many many New Mexicans. And those stellar yellow license plates that are so easy to spot. Anyway, I am quite stoked to be spending a week in the Albuquerque area playing some gigs. Some gigs that involve Susan Gibson, who is a songwriter genius and pretty much rocks the socks off of most people/places/things (read: NOUNS) that write songs. (In case trees write songs, or if perhaps the city of Dublin, Ohio wrote a song...I wanted to make sure the accolades were all encompassing). suSANG We met on a cold, rainy day (or more likely, hot and sunny) at UNM, when I was still a political science/public relations/undecided major taking Music Appreciation 141. Susan was the special guest in our class that day, kind of like..."see, I don't teach just dead classical composers" proof that our professor was cool. (She was a cool prof, actually). And I said, "Whoa." And that was pretty much it. Well, there's more...but you'll have to come to a gig to find out the rest. Check out the calendar page for all the haps, kids...and I'll see you soon. |
