You, on the other hand, don't need smooth sailing on the I-5 to make it to this show. A rare native Californian, Carla attended school in Jamaica. Then she *really* went to school in the talent-rich clubs of New York City. After returning home to LA, she put her new-found chops to use on _Wake Up and Love Me_. Her debut disc meshes lyrics that range from angry to vulnerable with a mix of scat, beatboxing, driving percussion and crunchy guitars. Carla's hard work hasn't gone unnoticed. She's picked up a pair of awards from ASCAP, heard her music on MTV and snagged DJ Danger Mouse (_The Grey Album_) to produce her next disc. Check out Carla's web site and her new band's new site: http://www.carlaholden.com/ http://www.iluvlux.com/ A bonus: advance notice - --------------------------------------------- For reading this far, you get a prize: the details of March's show. Award-winning singer-songwriter Adrianne will be playing on Saturday, March 5. http://www.adrimusic.com/ * It ain't Los Angeles either. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 08 Feb 2005 19:02:11 -0500 From: "Suzanne DeCory" Subject: FW: his and her road trips His & Hers Road Trips HERS 1.
