Give us a vote - M'Balia on Thursday
archive
We're lobbying for your VOTE !
Dear Friends,
There is a new website promoting Philadelphia businesses, called PhillyHotList, that was created in conjunction with MyPHL, channel 17, and they are launching with a Best of Philly contest. We have entered into the contest and would love to win the best bookstore of Philly designation and get more publicity in the cyber-world. This would help bring folks from Center City and beyond out our way and we'd love that. To visit the site and vote, please go to http://phillyhotlist.cityvoter.com/walk-a-crooked-mile-books/biz/575553. If you're up to writing a review as well that would be stupendous.
M'Balia Concert Thur. Aug. 5
On another tack, our next concert is this Thursday, August 5 from 7-9 p.m. We're excited about welcoming M'Balia for her first appearance here. Some of you may already know of her but if you don't, here's some information to entice you to come hear her.
M'Balia is a Philly-based singer-songwriter with an awesome voice, an off-kilter wit, and a pretty good strumming hand. After 15 years of jazz/cover bands and session work, M'Balia is finally creating her own little bit of acoustic musical alchemy; her original music has been described as "pop music ear-worms" and her covers of well-known tunes will remind you of why you liked the songs in the first place. M'Balia will be joined by Thom Loubet (Alice Smith, The Citizens) and Frank Carreno (Alice Smith, The Voyces). Her next gig, after us, is World Cafe Live!
