Tessa's Take!

Happy over the hump day! Wednesday's are always a fun day in Live Music, every musician mentions the hump day with glee...helping us all look toward the coming weekend. One of the things I love most about SL music is the energy and, well, simple pleasure the performers exude during their sets. I can't find a better example of that, than the set I just caught at Romantic Island. TJ Oanomochi was on the stage singing some of the smoothest music to soothe even the most restless of souls. Her version of Come Away With Me by Norah Jones was quite literally breathtaking. TJ sang with such emotion, her passion for performing clearly evident. I scanned her profile and learned she is a professional RL singer. Her profile was very understated compared to her bio and write ups. She has performed with some of RL's best and continues to tour, bringing her soulful voice to SL when she is able. She was fun, bubbly and very friendly during her set. I thoroughly enjoyed her style and plan on catching her again soon! Thanks for peeking at Tessa's Take....until next time...Tessa1 Beck

Tessa's Take!

Hi People! I have been busy today venue hopping. I caught a few acts, lots of backing tracks and quite a few no shows. Finally 2pm hit and time for my daily dose of Max. Maximillion Kleene that is, playing live at Romantica Yacht Club. Coming to a Max show is like coming home for me, it's where my love for SL music was born, where most of my friends can be found and where the noise of the day can most assuredly be drowned out. The set was stellar as usual, the smile staying on my face throughout. I was able to record a few songs today and add them to my playlist, with Max's permission of course, so travel down to the player and have a listen. Max never disappoints, singing songs that are sweet, sexy, sad and sometimes very playful(The Sandwich Song for one). I try to never miss a show, and once you have heard him, I am sure you will feel the same, so check him out, it's what's good for you :-)
