Almost August

Hello, I'm back! The last month was crazy in a beautiful way. Visited with my wonderful cousin and his partner. Did another concert in Turin, Italy and am looking forward to more possible projects there. Hooked up with two more dear friends, in Italy (near Pisa, fabulous villa high in the hills, complete with swimming pool and scorpion) and in Morocco! Went to some friends' wedding in Tangiers and experienced no end of colorful sounds, images and emotions. To Westerners it was one surprise after another, from the welcoming cocktail (a glass of milk) to the dainty paper bags laid on each guest's plate (to take home the leftover scores of tasty pastries).

AND the first 5 tunes are mixed and ready to be shopped around to record labels! It is my goal to find a supportive structure for this album (press agent, booking agent, label for marketing and distribution), so if anyone out there can help in any way, please let me know! Can also send the new tracks to interested parties!

Happy August to all - Vick

P.S. Here's a shot of me trying on a Moroccan gown at designer friend Mahmoud Benslimane's atelier. He does beautiful work and is a sweet character.
