Alfa opens for The Kennedys in NJ! + Band Show @ Best Buy!

[Alfa]

Hey everyone!


Happy 2011!!! I hope the year of the rabbit is off to a good start
for you.
For me, it's busy busy busy, but in a very good way! There's lots
ahead for me and music this year. Starting with - and I'm super
psyched for this - a show with The Kennedys this weekend.

I first heard of The Kennedys a year or so ago. Through my job as a
journalist, I got to know Maura Kennedy, and eventually Pete, her
husband. Both are extraordinary musicians and songwriters, and have
been super supportive of my music, too. They're a couple I look up
to. It will be a great show! Hope you can join us.

Next week, I'll be playing what may be my last band show in NYC for at
least a couple months. We'll hit up Best Buy's sweet stage in Union
Square once again, play songs old and new, and will be joined by Laura
Dadap (we now call her Nihao Kailan) on backing vocals! Exciting!

5 to 6 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 26

1 Union Sq. South (14th St. and 4th Ave.), NYC

If you haven't already seen it, California-based songwriter Dawen
linked up with Macy Gray to do a cover of her song, "Beauty In the
World," while giving back to the community out in L.A. Sure, I'm here
in NJ, but I was able to contribute a little bit to the project, which
passed the 10,000 views mark already: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0lKM-9Olks

Also, shows in Pennsylvania, Maine, Boston, Dallas, Austin on the
horizon! More at www.alfa-music.com!




Love and music,
