Back In Town - 2/12/07
School's out! My internship with Mark Johnson at Groovemaster in Santa Monica was mind blowing. I visited New York and Montreal over Christmas break, and I'm finally home home. Yes, home home. The Girlas are gigging around Honolulu in preparation for the Kokua Festival, and if you'd like to keep up with is, please visit our space - myspace.com/thegirlas.
I'm In Arizona For A Year!
I'm studying audio engineering at The Conservatory for Recording Arts and Sciences in Tempe, Arizona for 8 months. Then I'm off to Nashville for an internship for 2 months, and we'll see what happens from there. I'll still be gigging around Arizona while I'm at school, so keep stopping by for updates. The Girlas album is coming out soon, so visit us on Myspace.
