June 10 and 11th this year marked the third annual convention of Minor Music: a great event that exposes youths in music to…well…more music. It teams up mentors and protegees, offers open jams and clinics, and it’s just an absolute great time.
Can I just say it was a a penultimate fantastic time this year?
My Ogle Me Some this week is Molly Thomason who I snapped from my little seat in the eighth row. I’m impressed she came out so clear although I had to wait till she was fairly still in the lighting so I wouldn’t blur the heck out of her because my shutter speed was so slow. I think the shot suffers, but the blue light is cool.
I’m pasting in a video from the concert where she’s doing her hit All Down the Highway. Did you realize this little songbird is under 18? Wow. Check out her website for details

/ June 19, 2011thanks Susan. I think the convention is a crucial part of our community and every year it gets better. I’m not surprised a rocker writer would be involved with music and nonprofit. I would be surprised if you weren’t given your background.

/ June 18, 2011You know I’m a huge proponent of exposing our kids to music, right? That every year I do a Musical Hanukkah Celebration that last year included me donating part of my royalties to the Mr. Holland’s Opus Foundation?
I LOVE what Minor Music is doing. Love the play on words in the name, too.
