Music Monday: Tyrone Wells

One day about a month or so ago, I was driving home from work and someone on the radio mentioned something about Tyrone Wells coming back to Boise. I was annoyed because by the time I got home they still hadn't announced any of the details.  I hopped on the computer and found out that he was going to be in Boise on March 21st.  I instantly tweeted about how excited I was and heard back from Tyrone a little bit later.  Heather and I ended up being able to do merch for him again.

It was nice to be back at The Knitting Factory because there's a lot more room for the merch.  We met some great people.  Joe Brooks opened for Tyrone. He was great and we ended up getting his cd.  Tyrone's set was amazing. He played a little bit of something for all of his albums. It was great to hear him play from his new album and share about the different songs. We were able to chat with him before we left and congratulate him on his new baby girl. He's such an awesome guy; it's always great to see him!

Be sure to check out his tour schedule and see if he'll be in your city anytime soon.

Check out a couple songs from his new album Where We Meet.

Music Monday: Jayme Dee

I found Jayme Dee a couple months ago on Twitter/Youtube. She has a fabulous voice and is just the cutest thing. She's done a lot of covers, but is currently working on her own music. I hope you enjoy these music videos. The last one is her own song. If you don't have time to listen to them all, then I'd recommend just watching the first one. It's my current fave!

Music Monday: Steve Martin

As you know, Saturday night the fam saw Steve Martin and The Steep Canyon Rangers. The parents took Heather and I as an early birthday present. We had such a great time at the show. Steve is a fabulous performer! He's so funny and has great comedic timing. The Steep Canyon Rangers were truly amazing!

Here are just a few pictures from the show. I hope you enjoy!

Music Monday: The Civil Wars

You may remember THIS Music Monday post from two weeks ago. I thought I'd do a follow-up post and share how amazing the show was. Heather and I got to the Egyptian right when the doors opened. We stopped at the merch table where Heather bought Barton Hollow on vinyl. We made our way to our seats which were in the very front row. We were so incredibly excited! Rayland Baxter opened and he was great. We ended up buying his cd on the way out of the show.



There were a couple annoying drunk girls at the show, but luckily they ended up getting kicked out part way through The Civil Wars set. Besides that, the show was amazing. I loved how intimate and raw it was. It was just Joy and John Paul with a guitar and occasionally a piano. It was so beautiful.




After the show we hung around, waiting and wondering if they were going to come out for a meet and greet. Luckily we didn't have to wait long as they were escorted out front of the theater. We were already close to the doors so we were some of the first people to meet them. We got a picture with them and they signed Heather's new vinyl. It was a little rushed since there was a line. In all the chaos we didn't hang around long enough to find and meet Allister Ann. I was pretty bummed because I absolutely love her photography so much. She's one of my inspirations. I guess there's always next time. :)



Here are some gorgeous pictures and tour videos that Allister Ann shot.

Music Monday: Katy Perry

I need to keep this super short. I was supposed to go into work today, but there were no babies. I've been spending the day playing catch-up. I feel like I haven't had a day since I got back from the trip. After I get the big stuff done today I'm hoping to get some blog posts written for the rest of the week. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy this new Katy Perry music video. I think it's amazing!

Music Monday: Tyrone Wells

You may have already seen Heather's post HERE about when we went to see Tyrone Wells, but I couldn't NOT post about it too. I knew for a month or so that Tyrone was coming back to Boise so I sent him a tweet asking if he'd need help with merch again. He said yes and Heather and I couldn't wait! It's a great way to see a show for free, especially being very broke right now.

It was great to see Tyrone and Mark again! They're both so friendly and genuine. It's always refreshing to meet people like that. The show was great and the merch table was close to the stage! It was at a bar, so unfortunately there were the annoying drunk people that got too loud. Tyrone ended up stopping one song because no one would quiet down, which was unfortunate. Heather and I were just glad we had the merch table as a barrier from some of the crazies because I don't like dealing with crowds like that. Anyway, Tyrone played some new songs and I'm really looking forward to his new album coming out, in hopefully the near future. I look forward to attending many more of his shows!

Music Monday: Wicked


Yesterday afternoon Heather, my mom, a friend and I saw Wicked at the Morrison Center. The last time I saw it I had listened to the book on cd beforehand so I would have a better understanding of the story. It was so great to see it again and pick up on things I had missed the first time. I understood the story even more and also enjoyed the songs because I knew them.


It was incredible and we had great seat on the floor. I caught myself silently singing along to the songs and was brought to tears throughout (more specifically Defying Gravity and For Good). Both my mom and friend hadn't seen it before or heard the story and they really enjoyed it as well. I've included a couple videos of two songs, although it's hard for a Youtube video to do justice.
