Sun Jan 25 - CHANGE YOUR IMAGE, CHANGE YOUR MINDSET, CHANGE YOUR LIFE: CREATE SUCCESS - a Workshop in L.A

Who do you want to be in 2009?

CHANGE YOUR IMAGE, CHANGE YOUR MINDSET,

CHANGE YOUR LIFE: CREATE SUCCESS

 

Hi everyone. gilli moon here.

 

I want to tell you a little story about an artist friend called Jane. Jane's dream was to be a successful singer-songwriter. She had the talent. She had the looks. She had the desire. Most of all, she had great ideas promote herself. She accumulated lots of marketing ideas and created a strategy to get her music out there. She discovered along the way that it's not just the MARKETING that fills a practice. It's the MINDSET as well. Over the years, she started to notice her own limiting thoughts, her inner critic, her self-sabotaging behaviors, and a whole slew of FEARS that kept getting in the way of making what  she really wanted to make and living the life she dreamed of.

 

Once she realized that these "negative forces" were at work, Jenny started working on them, one by one, and each time she did, she started seeing changes in her opportunities. The more she worked on her mindset, the more opportunities came to her. Also, the more she disciplined herself to follow her marketing strategies, and being business minded, the more opportunities came.

 

Both a positive mindset and her dedication to her marketing combined, brought her music success.

 

The good news, is YOU can create this too.

 

Come to a Workshop on Artist Image, Mindset and Marketing

Females On Fire & CARE

As previously mentioned, Care (www.care.org) was chosen as an organization to donate part of our proceeds of the new Females On Fire 3 compilation.  CARE is a leading humanitarian organization fighting global poverty. They place special focus on working alongside poor women because, equipped with the proper resources, women have the power to help whole families and entire communities escape poverty. Women are at the heart of CARE's community -based efforts to improve basic education, prevent the spread of HIV, increase access to clean water and sanitation, expand economic opportunity and protect natural resources. CARE also delivers emergency aid to survivors of war and natural disasters, and helps people rebuild their lives. Their mission is "to serve individuals and families in the poorest communities in the world. Drawing strength from our global diversity, resources and experience, we promote innovative solutions and are advocates for global responsibility."

Females On Fire is committed to supporting CARE, which in turn helps with their fight against poverty and their efforts to empower women in the developing world. We donated $500 towards CARE this month ($1 per first 500 CDs sold). www.care.org for more details about this wonderful organization.

 

 

Latest distribution of the compilation

All 3 Females On Fire CDs were recently exhibited at the Indiegrrl Conference in Virginia. They will be exhibited at the upcoming Dewey Beach Music Festival, Delaware this coming weekend; the Independent Music Conference at Musician’s Institute, Hollywood on Fri 10, Sat 11 and Sun 12 October; and it will be exhibited at the Taxi Road Rally 6-9 November, near LAX.   What this means is, we have them on display on an exhibition booth (shared with Songsalive!, the non profit organization supporting songwriters which I co-founded and preside over). When music industry representatives express interest in it, we give them a copy of the CD and we follow up later to see if they showed more interest. We also have them for sale as part of WGM’s ability to recoup costs.

reviews

"The thing that immediately struck me about this compilation is the incredible selection of styles from the musicians. Almost everything is represented from full out rock and roll to raunchy harmonica-infused country to tender ballads and everything in between. With impeccable production and a quality of songwriting that is incredible, this CD was a treasure chest of unknown (at least to me) gems." ~ Rock and Roll Report."

Also included were poets and spoken word artists, comedians, as well as vendor and exhibitor booths, children's activities, workshops, vegan and organic food vendors, healing arts, pet adoptions and more. Proceeds of this year's festival benefited animal rescue organizations. More details here  We are unsure there will be a 2008 festival yet. We are awaiting news from our sponsors. But there will definitely be some Females On Fire events coming up.

Show Review: A fabulous Females On Fire launch in L.A

I am ecstatic about last night's Females On Fire compilation CD 3 album launch ... so I'm writing a review on it, first hand.

The event has renewed my faith in the Los Angeles music scene, which I felt had been dying a slow death since 911. Ever since that time, I felt the L.A clubs were losing audiences, and the artists and bands in this town, losing faith in their ability to put on a good show, with less and less people supporting live music and opting for home video game/internet blogging instead (something I'm doing right now.. blogging).

Last night, 9 female artists and 3 spoken word artists, plus their musicians (a total of 27 artists) rocked the house at THE MINT, on Pico Blvd in Los Angeles. It was truly a stellar night. Firstly, we SOLD out dinner seats in advance and only an hour into the show, the room was at capacity. A full house! (130 people, standing room only)This is completely and utterly due to the diligence and team effort of the artists involved. Everyone made it a success because they all brought people – their fans and friends… who came to support the whole night. In L.A, it can be really hard to draw a crowd, but with combined efforts of all the girls, we DID IT!

Secondly, the artists were not only talented, more on that later, but very professional from beginning to end. They all came on time (early) and were ready, willing and able to ensure the schedule stayed on time (we even ran a little early!), that they didn't hog the stage, that they used the VIP lounge, they were courteous to all, including the Mint and their sound policies outside, and were just all a great COMMUNITY and TEAM together, supporting each other. All the artists stayed till the very end, and that's a feat in of itself as we started at 7pm and went till midnight.

Thirdly, People didn't want to leave. We passed the midnight hour and the crowd begged for more.Fourthly, artists travelled from far and wide for this. In particular, Lori and Steve of Hide From Cleo from Michigan and Claire Wyndham, all the way from Australia!

The night was in aid of the launch of the new compilation CD (details at end), and in aid of CARE.org (CARE believe that the status of women in the developing world is the key to fighting and ending global poverty. With education, skills and basic resources, they can become catalysts for change. Women can help build a better world for all. Check out their website at http://www.care.org/).

Warrior Girl Music is donating $1 of every CD sale to CARE.org and part of the proceeds from last night's door is also going to their charity. The artistsFirst up was Amanda Abizaid, who also graciously lent her P80 Yamaha keyboard for the night. Solo artist, she was a great first act as she set the stage for the rest of the night. She was soulful, accomplished and eclectic. Very talented lass. Robbie Kaye came on after as a duo. Two blondes on stage. Really easy going and full of flavor. Loved her too. Spoken word artist Antoinette Valente gave us a story about her rabbit with higher meaning. It was very honest and heartfelt. Thank you Antoinette for sharing such depth.Michelle Mangione and band came on stage and took us to a whole new level of energy. Really great stage performer, Michelle rocked us with her great accessible songs.

The night was really coming alive around 8pm and people were filling the room with all dinner seats taken. Claire Wyndham came on stage solo and completely wowed us. From Australia, she caught laryngitus, but you couldn't tell. She was awesome. I might say that our 2 soloists of the evening, Claire and Amanda, were able to grasp the whole audience with awe and quiet. That's quite a talent! I took the stage with musicians Shawn Cunnane and Andy Cat, and it was really fun performing on a night I also coordinated. I could feel the electricity on stage, and am grateful to feel it both ends, on and off stage last night. I'm still on such a high.Laura Bradley and her band then took the stage. She is tall, graceful and beautiful and her songs are deep and beautiful too. Awesome.

J.Walker, spoken word artist, and also co-host of the evening, gave us some time to change bands over with his riviting spoken word pieces. No ordinary poems, his flow matched an imprompu jam session on stage with Nicole (drummer from Michelle's band), Andy and Shawn (Gilli's band). What a hoot, and we were left in a frenzy!Time for Holly Light: soulful, bluesy, rock, pop, country, folk, all in one little person… and her band were hot, including Cara from Little Sista (also a Females On Fire artist). It was now 10pm and the room was full, to capacity, with people starting to dance under the euphoria. Some of the gals including me jumped up for the chorus of Red, White and Blues bringing the house down.

Flint came up next as our third spoken word artist. She has performed for us before, and tonight her talent shined again.All the way from Michigan, Hide From Cleo, as a duo, hopped up and duelled acoustic guitars. Sensitive songs, with a great American "I feel good" vibe, their performance was a perfect wedge between 2 bands, and they were very powerful in their own right. Zoe Scott, her sister Victoria and their band ignited the stage for the last segment at 11pm. We were running early… how amazing! Zoe is from London and she has this great British retro pop sound that delivers strong with her cool voice. Perfect time slot for this band, as Zoe melted all the men, and I'm sure some women, in the room in her little black mini. They were great.We all got on stage for a bit of a jam at the end, because at midnight people didn't want to go home. Finally I had to put an end to it all. "People,… don't you have anywhere to go on this Tuesday night at midnight? Don't you have real jobs tomorrow???" Jeez J he he. I grabbed Holly Light back up on stage to end it with a graceful, easy, cruisy song to end the night.

WHAT A NIGHT! The Mint crew were great with food, drinks, door. Thanks to Rob the sound man, Deana on the door, all of the Mint people were fabulous. The artists were fabulous. The audience was fabulous. It will go down in our memories as one of the best Warrior Girl Music Presents nights.

Thanks everyone,

gilli moon
