- Victor and Mike
This picture pretty easily sums up my feelings about playing NYC last week. I was fortunate enough to have my Milwaukee-based Lucky Penny producers, Victor DeLorenzo and Mike Hoffmann, join me onstage, (along with John Montalbano) and it’s safe to say we had a blast. My iPhone captured this happy little moment on May 19, 2009, after our rehearsal at Smash Studios in Midtown – we were cabbing it back to have drinks with the lovely Karen Keene at the Hotel Giraffe. I am so grateful for these guys in my creative life – they inspire me, encourage my voice, helped me realize my latest album, and then were good enough to come and play the songs live with me. I love their spirit of fun and exploration, and their willingness to jump in on harmonies. Just so much fun, and it was over way too fast. I look forward to the next time we’ll get to play together. Our shared creative time is a big ol’ gift to me, and I can’t thank them enough. If I may say so. And I do.
