  • Gabby La La: Friendship Cake
    May 23 2021

    Be Careful What You Wish For may as well be the album title to Gabby La La's career. She has a truly original approach to life and music. In finding her instrument, the Sitar and learning from the master Ali Ahkbar Khan, she found a discipline, her voice, and the bigger lesson: To play from the heart.

    Gabby is still jamming and creating her way through life. From motherhood, to quilting, to online Ukulele lessons, ASMR videos and whisper crafting to her newest E.P. arriving this month. 

    She is the girl who practices what she believes: being positive with people, that friendships matter AND Family is the core of all creativity!

    I had such a great time interviewing Gabby and I just know you will too.

  • Kevin Concannon: Art is Our Story
    Apr 25 2021

    Kevin Concannon has a PHD in Modern and Contemporary Arts and African Art History.  As the former Director, Adjunct Professor and Chair of the Virginia Tech School of Visual Arts, his perspective on the Art World is well known.
    In a wide ranging conversation that can seem rather self effacing at times, Kevin goes so far as to call himself a "Higher Education Bureaucrat." How he started the path to his career in the art world is unique. The story weaves through his time with Yoko Ono - both on stage with her and his written expert analysis of her long career as well as treasured conversations. It is the story of an Art Historian and Collector who becomes part of the story himself.
