Summer in the City
And babe, don’t you know it’s a pity
That the days can’t be like the nights
It started off like any other hot summer day as a tourist in NYC. A $100 Uber to relocate luggage, and a sweaty subway ride into Time Square. Except today was the first day off of the Dead and Company tour. Still high from tour mode, Katie Skene and I donned head to toe tinsel and sequins to shoot some band photos with Ashley Myers in the most obvious place in the city. Needing a little relief from our heat generating space apparel and the cat calls, we jumped in a cab to our next destination. Never quite knowing where the days take us, but somehow always taking a gamble in the right direction, we started the evening off right at my absolute most favorite boot store of all time, Space Cowboy NYC. Six bottles of Rosé later, a new maroon hat and a laundry list of boots I will someday own, we ventured out into the city that literally never closes until we saw Ashley off to her 8 am flight. Thank you Gabe for hosting an unforgettable night and Tia for styling and housing three crazy ladies in your NYC flat. We love you!
In the summer, in the city.

Tangerine Dream
Living reflection from a dream.
We woke up early on a Monday morning in February, sipping on coffee just to stay warm in my heatless Los Angeles house. Running through saved inspirational images in our phones, Ashley and I decided to curate a shoot around the tangerine tree in the backyard. Thankful for the rain that added a little moss to our normal dustbowl of a lawn, we took advantage of the rare sunny moment we had in our gloomy month of February.

Arena di Verona
Verona, Italy
It’s hard to believe a structure 2000 years old can feel like home. Over the course of 2016-2017 I had the honor to perform 22 sold out shows with Zucchero Fornaciari. Rain or shine (mostly rain!) the Italian city of love brought in thousands and thousands of fans from around the world to this very special venue. Walking into this ancient cavernous structure for the first time was pretty damn intimidating, but soon standing side stage warming up instruments to a crowd of 15,000 felt just at home. Post soundcheck, Italian photographer, Stefania Marchi, captured me at the arena wearing my own designs, Bohemian Bunnie.
Arrivederci, bunnies!
