Dragons in the Kitchen

My cello teacher pointed me to a video of Sarah Clanton Schaffer's Dragon's in the kitchen. She has a sweet voice - here songs are catchy quirky and intriguing and its cello! What more could you want? Sarah is definitely carving out a place in folk rock with her cello. Enjoy!

Sandy, Election Day and Latvians

Hurricane/Tropical Storm Sandy rolled over top of us last week.  We were spared to worst of it - we got much need rain and the fall leaves fell a little faster. Because, I didn't post last week, I'm going to post early this week.

Today is election day in the United States - if you are in the U. S. and are registered to vote, please remember to do so.

For today's video, I thought I would pull the cello trio Melo-M from Riga, Latvia. I first found these guys about five years ago because they were doing covers of old America pop songs, like the Final Count Down and Ghost Busters. Here is a cover of Misirlou from earlier this year:



There is a nice contrast between the very traditional beginning and the pop ending. Enjoy.

You can find Melo-M on the internet:
