Jodi Writes:
July 2010
I had my first show in one year in Binghamton, NY last weekend and it was AMAZING. Thank you to all the wonderful, good-vibed souls in Binghamton who have been coming out to see me perform for the past three years, and thanks to John Kanazawich for being such a gracious and thoughtful host.
I have two New York shows coming up: Friday, August 13th a full band show at Bar 4, in Park Slope, Brooklyn, @ 9pm sharp and Monday, August 16th a solo round-robin style set with four other songwriters, as part of the NY Songwriters Circle @ The Bitter End in Manhattan.
I continue to work on my two albums of all new songs. They are sounding great! I have no idea when they will be finished but I am hoping to have them out by Christmas 2010. I will also be releasing a full band, live in-studio recording of several tried & true Jodi Shaw songs. A lot of them are now pre-featured on my MySpace page.
I hope you are all feeling well-rested, well-connected, and hopeful for what the future might bring.
