Shen's News: I've finally caught up on blogging my last couple of gigs: Tibet2Timbuk2 CD Launch @ Brisbane Powerhouse (lovely photos of a lovely gig) and the BEMAC 21st Anniversary Gala Concert, where I played with my new jazz-world group Jaadu.
I've also been hard at work publicising Tibet2Timbuk2's new CD "Music is Life" recently. The award-winning "Crane Song" is on the latest C-Realm episode - good listen that - which has generated a few downloads in USA. And you can hear Tibet2Timbuk2 on Weekend Planet (ABC Radio National) this Saturday between 10pm-11pm. It's a great CD, so please check it out at the EthnoSuperLounge Shop. Proceeds go to support Tibetan Children's Village.
This is looking like my last email for the year, so I want to wish you all a very happy festive season, solstice, Christmas, New Year, and so on. I will be with my family in Perth from Dec 17 to Jan 3. No Woodford for me this year - if you're talking to influential people, please tell them they're crazy not to book Tibet2Timbuk2! In January I hope to be giving double lessons to all my students, before I head to India Jan 25 to March 24! :-) Very exciting!!! After that I'm hoping to bring bansuri player Taro Terahara over for the second half of April.
Happy New Year!!!
