Solstice 2014
June 21, the Summer Solstice and also the longest day in the year. Solstice is a time to celebrate the coming of Summer. Summer is the time of the child, a time of planting and growing; new beginnings. Celebrate this day by planting the seeds of what you wish to manifest throughout the year. I will celebrating with family and friends at White Rock beach around noon on Saturday by letting go of what no longer serves me and speaking of what I desire. A friendly celebration for all to enjoy. Please come join us. Just call or email or walk the beach and find us, a group of children and adults enjoying the energy of the Solstice.

Giving and Receiving --- Pathfinders Fundraiser
When you are on your path, walking your walk you will find yourself wanting to give to share with others. This is actually the path to receiving. Opening yourself to accepting what others have to offer makes you a magnet to receive. Giving is a gift within itself as it satisfys us and sometimes brings joy to others which is even more satisfying. I can think of no other cause worthy of our full attention then the needs of the youth at risk on the street and dealing with issues of drugs, unhealthy eating habits and exposure to the elements and all kinds of dangers. Pathfinders is an organization that deals directly with this issue. They provide home care and services for youth at risk. Go to their website and see the programs they provide and find a way to support them if it is in your heart to do so. Here is a link to a fundraiser they are having soon, but please check out the programs that they offer on their web site.

Lots happened this week and even more to come, especially for Father's Day!
I had lots of action on the Billboard charts lately as featured soloist on Bob Baldwin's Chameleon 3000. That tune is blazing up the charts and racking up sales (for Bob that is!), and my name is getting out there. Ubiquity is my goal!
This Saturday, I am helping out my good friend Dr Tony Wong with his Burnaby Vision Care grand opening at 3801 Hastings. What a great new store with the largest selection of eyewear around. Jazz from 10 am to 4 pm.
I will be joining Billy Dixon and Soultrain Express at the Lux Lounge (1080 Howe) as soon as I can get there, around 4:30- 7 pm, and then I perform at Ten Ten Tapas at 7:30, just around the corner at 1010 Beach Ave. We always have lots of guests to make the event special. A new set of tunes will be debuted! And don't forget the super yummy food and cozy patio! Billy Dixon and Lisa Fennell will sing, so c'mon down Luis and Nick, Cecille and Riley, Brock and Gerry, Willy and Daryl!
In three weeks I will be in Ontario at Blue Mountain Jazz Fest, in the Georgian Bay/Collingwood/cottage country area, I will be performing with Gino Vanelli for his show on July 4, and then have my own featured show July 5. I will stick around on Sunday to hear the Yellowjackets......
July 20 I will be at the Lyric Theatre (Outdoor Festival) with Rob Tardik and Walle Larsson for the Canadian Brass and Steel show that we put together.
During this time, except the above mentioned dates, I will be starting a new regular gig at the Hard Rock Casino in Coquitlam on Friday nights- come down, you will like the lounge I am at!
However, I am still holding court at Ten Ten Tapas every Saturday night at 7:30, and also for Sunday Jazz Brunch at 11:30 am. This coming Father's Day will be extraordinary, as I will play brunch, as well as dinner from 7-9. A fantastic prime rib dinner is planned for all the carnivorous, under appreciated Fathers out there! LJ Mounteney and Melissa Howell will be guesting as vocalists extraordinaire!
Also, I recently launched my new FaceBook music store, that has ALL by back catalog available as digital downloads AND hard disks.... check it out! There are guests on my dozen cds that include Dee Daniels, Paul Horn, Nancy Ruth, Christine Duncan, Warren Hill, Miles Black, Amanda Wood, Brian Bromberg, Chuck Loeb, Jeff Lorber, Marc Antoine, and many more!

Music and the Heart
Gabriel Mark Hasselbach
It is going to be a really fun weekend in Vancouver, and I hope to see you! All the patio seating should be open and inviting....
Saturday 4-7 pm ~ I play with Billy Dixon and Soultrain Express at Luxe Lounge (1180 Howe St) - Soul and 80's favs!
Saturday 7:30-10:30 pm ~ I am at Ten Ten Tapas (1010 Beach Ave on the Seawalk) - The lineup of guest performers is always exciting, c'mon down!
Sunday 11:30-2:30 pm ~ I am playing JAZZ BRUNCH at Ten Ten Tapas (1010 Beach Ave) - Amazing view, amazing food!
Sunday 4:00-5:00 pm ~ I am playing original material with a full band at Jazz Vespers (St Andrews Wesley Church, Burrard @ Smithe) - Rene Worst, Chris Haas, and Jason Decouto will join me.
Music is one of the most powerful forms of healing in the Universe. As a singer and performer I can testify to that as each time I finish a performance I feel enlightened, joyful, free and satisfied. Until recently that is. Most of my experience as a performer has been on the Sunshine Coast of B.C. That is actually where it all began for me. I just decided one day I wanted to sing and while at a jam at Peter Light's fire circle in Gibsons, B.C. I got up and sang a song and I never stopped. I have participated in many plays, music events, whatever felt comfortable for me; comfort being the key word here. I left the coast about three years ago and moved back to Vancouver and just recently have been attempting to enter the music community. Gabriel Mark Hasselbach, one of Canada's leading jazz artists facilitates a music jam at Ten Ten Tapis Restaurant and he offered to do a recording for me. After working hard for about a week on my songs (struggling) I went to his studio. I have never struggled so much with my voice and at the time I was clueless of what was going on. Gabriel is a kind and compassionate man with a sharp ear for music and I have seen him work with other musicians and he is amazing at guiding them and helping them to realize their potential. I think he would be great at facilitating workshops and/or one to one, teaching musicians/singers to reach into themselves to find their full potential. He took me step by step through what I needed to do to reach my voice and I knew everything he was saying was what I had been telling myself all week but alas I was still stuck. We did a recording which is awesome but when I listen to it I feel like my throat is stifled.
I thought about everything I knew and what he said, (it is so helpful to hear things from other people) and I realized what my real issue was. I had been out of the music community for so long that I was coming back into it with fear. Fear of not fitting in, fear of failure, fear of being judged,.... so much fear that I was stifling myself. Also when I began singing again I also began to experience this amazing heart opening, but the fear was getting in the way of the process. So I let go and began to breathe again and let the music sit in my Creative centre (sexual centre and centre for joy - 2nd Chakra) where it belongs and I went to bed and slept on it. I woke up with a song, sounding absolutely wonderful (as well as one can sound first thing in the morning). I'm back!!! Feeling comfortable and relaxed in my body once more I am ready to move forward. Thanks Gabriel what I received from you was a gift, you are truly awesome!
Gabriel Mark Hasselbach can be seen on Saturday evenings at 7:p.m. at Ten Ten Tapis Restaurant on 1010 Beach Avenue where he plays music for about an hour and then invites other performers and musicians up to join him. He also plays music here on Sunday morning brunch. Check it out I promise you will not be disappointed.

5 week online course - $200.00 - including a reading sent to you to begin and end the course.
In life we may be caught up in who we are and what we have to do to maintain who we are and forget to slow down and embrace those inner aspects of self that require nurtuing. Now is the time to address the inner you who may be peeking out at times but never makes it past the little peek hole that we create to ensure that it is still present. When we ignore these aspects we never really move in the forward direction that we intend. Sometimes we are just comfortable with our story and what we have made of them so we choose not to dig any deeper to learn, grow and heal more than is neccessary to maintain our comfort level.
Remembering the Goddess Within is an exercise of going in comfortably and embracing those hidden aspects, addressing them and integrating them. We become more at peace and empowered in ourselves and in our lives as we move past our fears and boundaries and learn to communicate and become the absolute aspects of our hidden powers.
Join me on this journey. You can begin at any time or invite friends to join you on this journey and we will incorporate group sessions to share and heal...Your choice, just make the decision to be more than you ever imagined in this lifetime.I
