Sunflowers & More - Fall 2022

Helloooo!

I hope you all had a beautiful summer. I have been so very busy myself, but in a good way. I’m so inspired by the various different musical happenings going on and there are a few things I wanted to share with you…

Just a couple of weeks ago we wrapped a music video shoot for the first single we plan to release for my newest most favorite project, ALBA MUSIK. The video is for a song called “Girasoles,” or “Sunflowers” where I wrote melody and lyrics about suddenly stumbling upon a sea of sunflowers, Van Gogh, happiness and madness. We traveled to Liberty Farm/Sussex County Sunflower Maze in New Jersey for our home-made video shoot. It turns out that the sunflower is also the national flower of Ukraine. It also turns out that this particular farm is the biggest sunflower farm on the East Coast! And if you look at it from above, the paths of the maze spells out the words WORLD PEACE.

So with that, and with our song, we are dreaming of peace for everyone everywhere!

In case you haven't come to check out ALBA yet, you can join u at our monthly residency at TASCA NYC in Manhattan's Upper West Side on these upcoming Wednesdays:

TASCA NYC is located at 505 Columbus Ave, between 84th & 85th St, NYC

Albert Alabedra (guitarist/composer extraordinaire from Barcelona) and I perform here together with usually 1 or 2 special guests in a beautiful VIP room in the lower level of the restaurant. I really enjoy the intimacy and coziness of the space, as well as the food and wine they offer!
