Dear Yerba Buena Festival fans, volunteers and staff,
Just in case you're in the Berkeley area during the holidays, I'd like to invite you to my CD Release Party & performance on Dec. 28, 8pm at Anna's Jazz Island in downtown Berkeley! Anna's is a cute jazz club, very welcoming atmosphere, located at 2120 Allston Way. I'll be performing with my trio (myself on piano, Eric Marshall on bass, Andre Custodio on drums) with special guests Alex Yeung on electric guitar, and very special guest Eddie Gale, my jazz mentor and legendary trumpeter/composer. We will also be celebrating the release of Eddie's classic recording "Children of Peace" on iTunes!!
Warm wishes for the holidays,
Valerie
Thank you for the add and the friendship! Wishing you a wonderful week ahead :)
I also wanted to let you know that my new album, Meridians, is now available on iTunes - as of yesterday!
(Search for "Valerie Mih" in iTunes to pull up the album.)
It's a mixture of jazz, classical and ambient influences...dreamy stuff...
I hope you enjoy the sounds & the day,
Bright blessings :)
Valerie
Hola Yerba Buena, Thanks for finding me and for the request. You are a great Festival. I had the pleasure to play it last year with Maestro Maraca. Hope to play it one day with my All Star Band. Peace, Adonis Puentes
Thanks for the add on. It was indeed an honor and pleasure to perform at the Gardens this past Summer 07'. Look forward to another great year of talent showcase. Good luck! PEACE
