A quick note to let you know Fruit Salad's Skyy Powers interviewed Dudley Saunders and myself about our music and our upcoming show at the Railway Club August 3.
The radio interview was live online and aired on July 22 Thursday at 7pm PST http://www.coopradio.org/ and is now archived on podcast. We are on around the 7:30 mark Dudley joined by phone from Los Angeles. The show carries over into the lesbian show as well.
We are both getting excited about the gig, its my first time to hear Dudley live and I know it will be an amazing night!
AMPLIFIER REVIEW "Before Dudley Saunders embarked on a career in art-washed Americana, he was a performance artist, which may go a long way toward explaining the dramatic and visually rich tone of his third album, THE EMERGENCY LANE. There is a natural tendency to draw parallels between Saunders and ‘Hissing of Summer Lawns'-era Joni Mitchell, as Saunders' wire walk between the simplicity of folk and the complexity of jazz, exhibited both musically and lyrically, mirrors Mitchell's own creative explorations..."Brian Baker
Dudley won the 2009 Outmusic Best Album of the Year in NYC!
Thanks to all who have been voting for my Acoustically Inclined now #2 on the Top 40 and Climb the Mountain is #5 on the Top 10 Songs on Outvoice.
Cheers and see you soon!
Love,
Norine

Spring has sprung and time to catch up. First off, playing at the Olympics and Paralympics was outstanding! The crowds were awesome, I chronicled the event on my facebook. The first gig at the Richmond Olympic Oval I was swamped with folks wanting pics with me AS I played and sang, very difficult to play and sing with arms wrapped around you! It was a hoot for sure! The next curling gig folks tossed loonies, twoonies and quarters, lots of sparkling coins at my feet at the end :) of the set, at another gig mascot Quatchi danced to my songs and hugged me. The Men's Gold Sledge Hockey game had a wild crowd with fans dressed as Japanese Samurai warriors dancing to Evolution of the Blood Star (my medal song) fun times!
After the performances the experiences were just as grand. I stood beside
Olympian Cindy Klassan at speedskating, shook hands with John Furlong the president of the Olympics, sat in the Royalty booth at speed skating and warmed the seat for the Crown Prince of Holland, the Prince of Norway sat right behind me and I witnessed the amazingly beautiful ice dances, so incredible I wept. I will certainly remember this once in a lifetime experience.
Thank you for voting for me for the Pride In The Arts Awards and congrats to all the recipients and nominees! It was a great show and so proud to have been nominated and to have been a presenter on the award show of this year's Group Award going to Sugarbeach.
I have uploaded a new music video of my song Conformity 451 and enjoying this new found creative outlet of mini movie making. You can see on my video page. Let me know what you think and tell me what song to do for my next music video. Thrilled to say my DIY Conformity 451 music video is now airing on NOVUS TV here in Vancouver and the lower mainland.
GIG this past Sunday April 25 at 8:30 pm (no cover), at Cafe Barcelona 1049 Granville downtown Vancouver. Alice Fraser joined for a few tunes on keys and Sherri Chisholm on percussion. I played a couple of new tunes I finished writing last week and now working on plans for a new album. I have 8 new songs on the go but only about 2 are in the bag.
Acoustically Inclined charted at #3 for March on Outvoice the online GLBT Top 40 and Climb the Mountain was the #9 on the top 10 songs for the month to boot! Thanks to all who have been voting, so glad you like that cd and tune!
All is well here and I trust all is well for you.
Love,
Norine

Thought I should post some of my experience playing at the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics. The following are excerpts from my facebook pages.
Norine Braun last gig at Vancouver Olympic Centre today for the women's curling and maybe more gold for Canada, wow these 2 weeks sure went by quick!
Norine Braun I am a part of all that I have met.
Norine Braun had a fun set at ROO then sat in the Royalty booth beyond kewl. I was a seat warmer for the Crown Prince Willem-Alexander of Holland, The Prince of Norway sat right behind me so totally amazing! I was briefed on royalty protocol which was interesting too... this has been quite an adventure far beyond what I expected.
