Update June 29, 2008

So here it is almost July and I have been very neglectful of my website updates. What’s new? I played a great show in April in New York at one of my favorite venues, Alibi, with my gals Diana and Mary backing me up. It was a really awesome feeling to be able to come back and have a packed house and see all my friends. I am back in Sydney now and had my first show last week at the Drummoyne RSL and I have 2 more shows coming up in July and September. The music community here has so far been very supportive and encouraging. I especially want to thank Fiona from the band Something More Than Ordinary for her amazing help and Sam Buckingham as well for being really friendly. I have a booker here and there is no shortage of places to play out. I am actually trying to not do too many shows close together so I don’t burn out my audience. There are tons of Canadians here, as I found out last night at the Canada Day party at City Hotel where it was packed with toques (that’s for you Abbi Ferguson!) and hockey jerseys. I met a bunch of new people, hopefully who I can add to my gig list. Married life rocks and my hubby is busy and supportive of my efforts in music here. I will try to be better at this blog although my myspace one is easier to update since I can do it myself and not bother my Canadian brother Jamie every time I need to change or update this one. I have discovered a great website called ‘thesixtyone.com’ which has a huge library of artists to listen to. I added the link above so you can check it out for yourself. I am adding my music to as many online sites as I can to get more exposure. I have fans in Norway because of that so hopefully that trend will continue. Anyways- I have to go but thanks for listening and your support. As always, love, peace and music! Lonnie
