Candela by Buena Vista Social Club #Cuba #MusicMonday
I just returned from a trip to Cuba. Friends and I spent two days in Old Havana and enjoyed fabulous live music. Whether you understand the words or not, it’s impossible not to be carried away by energetic musicians to an addictive beat. Music is played everywhere—all the time. You can hear it in cars,...Continue reading Candela by Buena Vista Social Club #Cuba #MusicMonday →

Fkj Live at La Fée Electricité, Paris #MusicMonday
This is another great song from Fkj, an artist I’ve featured the entire month of January. I’ve been in Cuba for the past week without much access to the Internet. It’s a good thing to be away from the noise of social media for a while. I’ve had the opportunity to listen to live music...Continue reading Fkj Live at La Fée Electricité, Paris #MusicMonday →

Losing My Way by Fkj and Tom Misch #MusicMonday
This is another addictive song from Fkj. I featured him last week for the first time playing with Masego. Here he is performing with Englishman, Tom Misch. Fkj’s talent is evident in his collaborations. Both he and Tom Misch are two of the most creative musicians on the scene right now. Their styles complement one...Continue reading Losing My Way by Fkj and Tom Misch #MusicMonday →

Tadow by Fkj and Masego #MusicMonday
I love the vibe these two musicians create. Though I don’t write with music, I do love taking a break to it, and this song has been playing consistently on my laptop. Vincent Fenton, who is professionally known as French Kiwi Juice or FKJ is a French multi-instrumentalist, singer, and musician from Tours, France. Micah...Continue reading Tadow by Fkj and Masego #MusicMonday →

Water, Water Everywhere as 2018 comes to a close #Bali #Yearend
“ …Water, water, everywhere,And all the boards did shrink;Water, water, everywhere,Nor any drop to drink…” “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner,” a poem dating back to 1798 by Samuel Taylor Coleridge came to mind as I wrote this blog. It’s now the lull after Christmas and right before the next big celebration, a good time...Continue reading Water, Water Everywhere as 2018 comes to a close #Bali #Yearend →

Chinese Translation by @mwardtweeting
One of the fondest memories I have of my father is when he told me and my siblings a bedtime story. He only came home two nights a week as he worked outside the city, so it was already a treat to see him. On those occasions when he wasn’t too tired, he’d transport us...Continue reading Chinese Translation by @mwardtweeting →

Real Love #JohnLennon
Can you believe it’s been 38 years since John Lennon passed away? He would have been 78. I’m always saddened that his life ended so tragically, that we lost an incredible songwriter and musician when he died. Inevitably, I lament the lost opportunity. He could have contributed so much more to the world … then,...Continue reading Real Love #JohnLennon →

Scars
I’m featuring the fourth and final instalment with James Bay. In exploring the themes of love, loss, desire, and sacrifice for my current book, his lyrics hit the mark. They fit the characters I’m writing, some of whom are scarred, both literally and metaphorically. Visible scars, and especially invisible ones, are evidence of trauma. We...Continue reading Scars →
