L I V E : vintage trouble

Dear World,

Also at Harvelle's in Santa Monica you can rock out weekly with their house band Vintage Trouble. Here on a " Trouble Tuesday" , as always, was awesome.

Call me sexist, but I find it hard to find a male lead singer, who has this much charisma and stage presence.... i love it.

I've seen him dance down the bar, or crawl into the crowd dancing, it takes you back to a whole other era....

his songs are heartfelt, and typically seem to be based on his own life expieriences. he introduces one song as " this is about a whore named Jesibella"

and another with " my parents love eachother but my dad wasnt a music man, if he was this is the song he would have wrote for my mom..." ( charmer!)

I highly recommend checking them out, especially on a night where you can them AND JSB ( and Jessie Payo) if you are prepared for that much rock and roll on a week night...

beautiful girls come up suited in their most retro of dresses to swirve through the dance floor from gent to gent. martini in hand, naturally...

plus, he reminds me of my brother...

CHECK EM

OUT, YO!

L I V E : Jessie Payo

Dear World,

Meet the Johnny Statchela Band. Featuring the gorgeous Jessie Payo.

As Usual, They rocked the stage at Harvelles in santa monica, a deep and smokey music joint with red velvet curtains and a vintage house band. If you have never been, I highly recommend it.

To the left, is Justin Wilman { aka Justin Kredible } Magician, Tv Show Host, extroridinaire. Jessie's Boyfriend. I know Jessie through my good buddy Justin, so I thought I'd snap a photo of him being a supportive boyfriend . turned out pretty hott eh?

She pretty much exudes sexiness on stage at all times.

These two have been rocking out together forever. The chemistry and music is solid-

and prepare to have your face rocked off.

danced off.

sexed off.

Gotta love Rock N Roll.

H E A D S H O T S : angela

dear world,

meet, the one, the only queeni.. uh, angela. one of my FAVE AU DPA-ers.

jumpin for joy!

give me an emotion?

wait, litch?

serious.

smiles.

now on a techincal note, you see how you can see angela's collar bone? why is that important... in my eyes, you can ( or at least i can haha) get a pretty good idea of what a girls weight/build/etc. is by a photograph this close up, if you can still see definition in the neck line/shoulders. Angela, of course, has a gorgeous body, so I think it's important that a headshot suggests that.

Angela is a CRAZY talented singer, you can catch her out starring in AU shows, or singing in her A Capella Group, Treble in Paradise.

it was very hard for angela to stay serious... not as she re-enacts chorepgraphy from when she was Queenie in AU's Wild Party!

lol. i loveee her.

H E A D S H O T S : elise

dear world,

this girl is hot like mexico, rejoice ( -lady gaga)

meet... elise.

she's from LA, so you already know she's my kind of girl...

on top of that, her eyes are friggen stunning. and I DONT use the word friggen loosely, look at em. or here, look at em again...

these were mainly to get a variety from her other headshots which had a big difference in make up, and her hair was worn naturally, with a curl to it.

I will SERIOUSLY miss this face, she is my financial body guard ;)

H EA D S H O T S : tia

dear world,

meet tia.

I remember sitting in an acting class a few years ago, and saying " you be fakin lii" and hearing someone respond " turkey bacon ryeeee" if your from DC, this is a good way to know you have found someone ALSO from DC ( or in this case MO CO well let it count)

Tia is so talented, its silly. She won an iphone winning AU's talent show singin a tina turner song as a freshman, girl was GETTIN IT.

she also dragged me into the BSA talent show January of this year which was one of the better nights of college for me.

above all else, im gonna miss her goofy self.

CHECK HER OUT IN CHICAGO THIS OCTOBER @ THE KENSINGTON THEATRE IN MARYLAND

D A N C E P O R T R A I T S : setarra

dear world,

i am beyond excited to share these photos with you. this is my first official dance portrait session.

meet, setarra.

Setarra was a grade ahead of me at the Duke Ellington School of the arts where she was known for being a wonderful dancer, choreographer, student, and friend.

She said she had never done this type of jump before, pretty impressive for a first try huh?

from here out, im going to let the photos speak for themselves.

Look out for her one day! She is going to run the Kennedy center :)
