Tessa's Take! on Harper Messmer

Happy Wednesday! I had a very busy morning in RL, that weird place we sometimes find ourselves, and only found my way back to SL late this afternoon. I was just finishing up my closet surfing when I got a TP from a friend to go to WiseGuys to hear Harper Messmer. I don't know about you, but, I am not about to pass up an opportunity to hear Harper. I have been listening to him for a long time now, ever since I was TP'd to one of his welcome back shows amidst about 60 adoring fans. He is still drawing them in all these months later. I really like the style he has, so laid back, so smooth. Someone once said to me, "doesn't he have the smoothest voice...hear it?" I have to say, yes, yes he does. His song list is full of so many tried and true favorites, but he mixes in some unique covers and really beautiful originals. A Harper Messmer show is guaranteed to be entertaining, his soft spoken manner, anecdotes and between song chats are fun, and you can hear the mirth in his voice when he talks of TP wars LOL. If for some odd reason you have not heard him, or if you are new to the SL music scene I highly recommend you check him out. SL music wouldn't be the same without him. Thanks for peeking at Tessa's Take....until next time...Tessa1 Beck

Tessa's Take!

I was standing around contemplating logging this afternoon when I got a TP to hear another new artist. One of those random things ya get, and I jumped on it, as the day had been filled with fruitless searches. Seemed like half the search listings were false, I was feeling pretty blah about the day....until.....Mapoo Little. I arrived at Wiseguys Social Club to a decent crowd and the coolest voice....she blew me away!The backing tracks were inconsequential, she could have been singing to blowing wind, it would have made little difference. One of my friends described her as a cross between Tina Turner and Anacostia...he's right, but she may even be better than that. She is from the UK and is a professional singer in RL. Check her out, it's a no brainer!

Hey Everyone! I was out and about last night and found myself at Pannies club. Harrison Digfoot was performing; now I have heard Harrison before, but he put on such a great show, I just had to write about it. This Georgia boy plays a great guitar and a mean harmonica! He broke out with a couple new songs, giving a great rendition of The Scientist by Coldplay. Harrison also has some really cool originals and he just signed on with a great new management team!My friend Yummi and I really enjoyed the show! Give him a listen if you get the chance, Maybe I'll see you there :-)
