Well, actually, downtown LA. This is where I’m mixing my record. We’ve started working on it and it already sounds great—I’m very excited!
It’s been almost two years since I’ve been in LA and coming from Paris now, I really see the difference between East and West Coast. People generally are more open here, friendlier, than [...]

Funny how life catches up with you and then you believe there’s no time for the important things—like blogging!
Just landed in NYC last night and am jetlagged so up at 6 am. Plus I’m staying at a friend’s place which is wall-to-wall windows so I imagine the break-of-dawn wakeup is inevitable.
What’s been going on…
1) Show [...]

I haven’t posted because I’ve been rehearsing for this show next Tuesday. My first gig in Paris! I’ll mainly be on bass but will be singing a few things. It’s for a new project of my very talented friend Miro called either “Le Garage Miro Meet Maggie” or “Garage Booster” (I think that’s the latest [...]

I’m reading A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle (yes, I know Oprah’s big on it right now.) Anyway, I find the book rather interesting when it comes to ideas of ego, enlightenment and evolution. It’s worth picking up, if you like the whole New Age-y spiritual thing.
Yesterday, I read this sentence in the book, “The [...]

Well, I was featured in KoreAm Journal, which is the biggest Korean American magazine around. It’s a nice piece, although they did get some things wrong, like the album I’m working on, which is not my old EP, Rocktease, but the upcoming, FULL-LENGTH album, Love Like Everyone.
That album is why Brent and I have been [...]

When I’m very tired, like I am now, I always have the weirdest dreams. Last night’s was a doozy…
It started out with some sort of surreal living situation with my latest celeb crush, James McAvoy (sigh). In my dream, though, like in real life I suppose, he was a small guy, shorter than me—which was/is [...]

That about sums up my week. After that last political blog (and the subsequent flurry of comments), I was knocked out by the cold/flu/sinus thing that just about everyone in the world seemed to have. BUT I found this great German-by-way-of-South Africa remedy in Whole Foods called Umcka. I recommend it to anyone who’s still [...]

This aired on SNL this past weekend but I’ve been to busy to blog about it. Dibs told me about this and I love it. Rock on, Tina Fey!
Politics is such an emotional subject, especially when it comes to a presidential election. I had watched the Texas debate with Peter, who’s an Obama supporter. Me? [...]

For those of you who don’t know, I’m hard at work on a new album. It’s an album of lovesongs called Love Like Everyone and it’s about love in all its various incarnations: desire, hope, longing, romance, bitterness, anger. So nope, not all sappy tunes, though there are a couple. (You can hear a demo [...]

I just saw the teen pregnancy (and so much more) flick Juno. I know I’m a little behind, but I’ve been in France! What a fantastic movie. Ellen Page is remarkable and ridiculously talented, but anyone who saw Hard Candy knows that. She certainly deserving of the Oscar nomination, if not the win. But considering [...]
