Weekly Studio Update

​There's something strange in the air, something that I haven't felt in Brisbane in a while... WARMTH! I might even have to switch the air-con from heating to cooling! I've especially felt it today as I decided to rearrange my teaching studio (again) to bring the things closer to me that I use more often. The books have moved away, and the computer has come closer as I use more and more digital resources.

I'm very excited as tonight I'm heading to the Brisbane Powerhouse to see my all-time piano hero Ben Folds launch his memoir "A Dream About Lightning Bugs". He's an excellent storyteller in his songs, so I'm really keen to see what he's been able to put down on the page.
Heartbroken about the cricket result in the Ashes overnight - I might be a bit morose until we hopefully get a win in the next test!
A big warm welcome to Emma and Chris who both have their first lessons this week! 
Things I've been watching/listening to this week:

1. Unwritten | Natasha Bedingfield | Pomplamoose ft. MALINDA - I love Pomplamoose as a duo, but the musicians they've recruited to become a fully-fledged band have taken them to the next level. So tight and funky!
2. The ingredients of a classic house track - another Vox Earworm episode, always well produced and a great way to spend 10 minutes of your day.
3. This week's household chores have been soundtracked by Childish Gambino ("Awaken, My Love!"), Stevie Wonder (Essentials), Carly Rae Jepsen (Dedicated), Taylor Swift (Lover), Jamiroquai (Automaton), Janelle Monae (The ArchAndroid), and my new favourite discovery, K.Flay (Solutions).
