Beth Southwell, Elise and I on COOP Radio

Last night, Sunday, Nov. 25th, Beth, Elise and I appeared alongside host Jeannie Mark on The Women's Storytelling Show on CFRO 102.7 fm, Vancouver's Coop Radio.
We were telling the story of the evolution of Violet Femmes. Beth sang her heart out live in the studio, as Elise provided her gentle violin fills and solos. The two elements made for a marvellous mix in the small studio setting.
Jeannie featured several tracks from the Violet Femmes Compilation CD. We heard from Edmonton's trio, Asani, groovetronic Ellee Ven, Denmark's enigmatic Emma Ninel and Florida's healing angel, Krishna Rose.
I would like to thank Jeannie and sound tech Padma for their generous hospitality and the opportunity to share all the exciting news of the upcoming showcases featuring artists from the Violet Femmes Compilation CD. It is great to speak with others as enthusiastic about the talent on the CD as I am.
We are looking forward to our rock/pop artists coming to Vancouver to perform at the Red Room on Richards St in February and March of 2008. Adriana Lorenzi from Venezuela is confirmed for March 15th. You can see her video at www.violetfemmes.ca/Home
