New Year’s Eve

It’s been a big year for me! I started my blog, I started touring a lot more, I released two songs to radio, and there were ups and downs, and bridges to cross, it was a lot packed into one year, but all in all, it’s been a great year and so much fun. I loved playing shows in LA, Chicago, New York City, Vermont, Maine, and visiting so many new places as well! I’ve grown as a musician, I’ve learned so much professionally, personally, and through going to school at Belmont all the while. I love the people I get to work with, the music I get to create, the musicians I get to play with, it’s such a magical experience every time we step on stage. Here are some of my favorite pictures from this year, I’ve had such a great time sharing it with you!

Seeing Salem

I mentioned in my last post that we stopped in Salem Massachusetts, home of the Salem witch trials. We were heading from Portland Maine to my next show in New York City! As we drove through the neighboring towns to get to Salem it all seemed pretty normal, but then when we got to the center, it was clear that they acknowledged their witchy history. There were several shops dedicated to Magick and museums all about what happened during the Salem trials. We walked around downtown and got a taste of the town in this great little cafe! Have you been to any towns with an interesting history?

Holey Donut

When we were exploring the winding streets of Portland we found some of the most interesting areas, and then happened upon Holey Donut! It was early morning and that seemed to be where everyone was heading; once we were inside I could see why! It smelled great and they had a good selection of donuts and some unique signature flavors. We got the maple donut and the glazed sweet potato donut! They were both incredible and made our morning in Portland so memorable. What are the best donut stops in your area?

Playing Portland

I read an article about how Portland Maine often was overlooked for the more famous Portland Oregon, which instantly made me curious about it! Then when I got the chance to play in Portland I couldn’t wait to visit. Driving through Maine was something I wanted and it was so cool to be in one of the most northern areas on the east coast of the US. We stumbled into one of the top 10 donut shops in America that specialized in potato donuts…I’ll be sharing THAT experience in my next blog post! All in all, from the show, dinner, exploring the town, and the donuts, I wouldn’t mind visiting more of Maine!
