What we did last night…

North Sea Jazz Festival: We go because we’re music lovers. We visit because we want to see musicians in action, we want to pretend our favourite songs are being sung live, just for us. We go because we want to bond with like minded people. We visit to discover new talent but we go, mostly, to feed our souls.

This year was, as usual, mind blowing. Sergio Mendez, Marcus Miller, Lady Gaga, Tony Bennett, Mary J. Blige and D’Angelo were some of the musicians I was lucky enough to enjoy. But the most inspiring of all the acts would have to be Miss Lizz Wright. O what a talent!

Dreaming wide awake…

Who are you? Stranger-
to come here and answer all my prayers
Where are you from? Angel-
you saved my life and disappeared
How do I find you?
Will you come when I need you?
O how I’d love… I’d love to be
sleeping, 
eyes wide open, 
dreaming wide awake ~ Lizz Wright

hit the ground and run…

“Hit the ground, take your veil down
..why so lonely? The day has just begun.
Hit the ground babe, hit the ground
and run…”  ~ Lizz Wright
