 Me & Mr. Cassidy Perfoms This Sunday at 8:30 pm. Dear Friends of BloomBars,For those of you reading The Weekly Bloom for the first time this month, welcome! As a DC Native and alumnus of both the Duke Ellington School of the Arts and American University, the network of artists I've had the pleasure of hearing, seeing, and knowing throughBloomBars has become a beautiful and intricate web of communal joy and creation. I am always amazed at how many people fit into the "garden" being built there and how the community grows each and every time I go. I have been writing music and playing guitar from a young age, but had been afraid to perform it publicly. I was brought to BloomBars by the MakePeace Brothers in the spring of 2009, when BloomBars held only one evening event a week. My music was received with smiling faces and encouraging words, and the stage at BloomBars became my home for creating and sharing my art. BloomBars gave me the confidence and guidance to write and produce my first solo album, and eventually, have the courage to move to Los Angeles, in pursuit of my dream. I don't believe I could ever begin to thank John Chambers and all of BloomBars' supporters and volunteers for the gift it has given myself, my family, my friends and fellow artists, in a way that would do it justice. I returned to BloomBars in January to play the first Seed The Sound Sunday of the 2011 year & I am thrilled to return again this Sunday March 6th at 8:30 pm. After a successful fundraiser on IndieGoGo, I am performing at Seed the Sound as part of my Los Angeles duo "Me & Mr.Cassidy" -- our East Coast premiere. We are stopping through Washington D.C. on our way to North Carolina to record our new full-length album. We have taken root in indie folk music with a bouncy pop feel, and have been performing weekly around the Hollywood and San Diego Music scene alongside fellow artists Bushwalla, Jessie Payo, Avasa & Matty Love, Parker Ainsworth, The MakePeace Brothers and many more.
With great love & joy, To get a peek at what Me & Mr.Cassidy has to offer you can check us out at the following: |

B L O O M B A R S : The Weekly Bloom
One of the most wonderful things about coming to the east coast is that we get to sing at Bloombars. Bloombars is my home away from home. My musical home...
A newsletter went out the week before our performance - and I was the featured writer in it. If you don't get the Weekly Bloom, you should definitly sign up for updates from them as well as artistically all over DC ... Here was my insert...
Our 12-track record tells a story in chronological order of two characters we've created deep in love. The Ups and downs of the music parallel the ups and downs in their life from Childhood until their hairs turn grey.
