Dear friends,
Some exciting things are happening this month: a show in Brooklyn, a radio interview, some new reviews, and the start of my Europe tour! Full details are below.
1. A Show in Brooklyn
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Wed May 21, 9:30-10pm
Galapagos Art Space
70 N 6th St (between Wythe & Kent)
Williamsburg, Brooklyn
$10 (night starts at 8pm)
Monkey Rock Records presents a night of contemporary folk, blues, and indie rock at Galapagos Art Space. I'll be playing a solo set with special guest Nick Loss-Eatonjoining me on a handful of numbers with his sweet sweet harmonica. The evening starts at 8pm and goes all night--other featured artists include Johnny Nicholson, Nathan Reich, Jordan Tarrant, Annie Lynch, Fiona Landers, and Garth Stevenson. Come for the whole thing or just stay for part of it--should be a great night either way.
2. A Radio Interview
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
WDPS 89.5 FM (Dayton, OH)
On May 22 I'll be doing an interview with one of the high-school student DJs at WDPS, "The Radio Voice of the Dayton Public Schools." My popularity with the kids appears to be an all-time high--one of my songs was recently quoted in an Atlanta teen's myspace blog, in which she also talked about the upcoming prom!!!
3. Some New Reviews
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
"Sweet Soubrette...sings beguilingly of love....with great spirit and sass. It's a short but sweet album, leaving the listener wanting much more."
--Collected Sounds
"All of the songs possess fresh, inventive lyrics and the arrangements are subtle and extremely effective…Ms. Bisker and engineer/musician/co-arranger Tim Cohan have produced a quiet, but engaging and original offering."
--Customer review on Amazon.com
"Sweet Soubrette is amazing. Hurray for ukeleles."
--Katie, 18-year-old myspace blogger, Atlanta, GA
