Melissa Stylianou - needs your support

Please help support this incredible New York based and Toronto born singer in her 4th album endeavour - Melissa is not only talented but has a great knack for choosing interesting material....time is of the essence - only about $3,000 to surpass the goal of $13,500 - if you love jazz and supporting great artists - now is the time to put your money where your mouth is - plus great incentives - at certain levels - homemade cookies, and the possibility of a coffee chat with her how amazing is that - plus credit, CDs, t-shirts on and on...

On the local scene - there is Quotes with Al Kay at 5, always Azure with Dan and the guys from 5:30 and tomorrow night at Chalkers the sublime Fern Lindzon starting at 6 p.m. Sunday it's the monthly Melissa musical brunch at Gate 403 with Melissa Lauren (one of my favourite singers) and later on Chris Butcher's group playing some Blue Note selections at 9 p.m.  Check out Ori Dagan up at Yonge and Erskine the same Sunday evening at Alize.....

Last night we did "Someone to Watch Over Me" and again "Cry Me A River" - with me croaking and seemingly out of tune - as usual over analzying - I trust this gets easier and I get more comfortable - Bill as always is great.
