Country-Pop Vocalist Eileen Carey Live at Firefly

 ,   Add to calendar
 South Pasadena  See map

Los Angeles Music Awards 2010 "Dance Single Of The Year" recipient Eileen Carey performs locally as part of the "Wine & Song" Series at Firefly Bistro, 1009 El Centro St., South Pasadena, Wednesday, August 1. 7:30 p.m. Free. Info: (626) 441-2443 or visit www.wineandsong.com. Carey will perform acoustically with guitarist John McDuffie. 

The Altadena, Calif-based musician has announced her summer tour dates, kicking off with her appearance at the 4th Annual Summerfest on Venice Beach this Saturday, July 28 at 1:45 p.m. (full itinerary below).    
   
Carey's catchy blend of Country, Pop, and Rock has gained her a loyal following through the years - was recently selected as an Artist Ambassador by national hair salon chain Supercuts as part of their "Rock The Cut" campaign, resulting in a huge spike in her visibility due in part to Supercut's vast worldwide Social Media Network.  
 
With little or no fanfare, The Southern California-based Carey continues to be passionately involved in numerous charitable causes, and started The Music Mom website as a networking/support site for mothers making music.

Eileen is currently in-studio recording the follow-up to her critically-acclaimed "Movin' On." Plans include a tour of both Europe and the U.S. once the record drops this Fall.

What The Press Is Saying About Eileen Carey And Her CD "Movin' On:

"Eileen Carey's voice is a droplet of honey dangling from a hive: glistening, all natural, and inviting...but don't be fooled by the coating because the woman beneath is strong, confident, and just a little bit sassy! Lyrically Carey is smart, to the point, and colorful. Potent lines such as 'Your lips have lost their poetry' from the title track deliver her message with absolute focused precision and flair. Eileen has something to say and she says it dynamically. An upbeat, empowering twirling dance that relishes life in the moment and celebrates the wonder, joy and excitement of what comes next."

Thank you but rather than ask South Pas residents to dig into their own pockets yet again, why notRead More help teachers by using funds already available? We have historically high reserves and stable state funding for several years.The district refuses to even negotiate salary increases. As of the past week, the district also now refuses to negotiate reduced class size changes. The recent parcel tax was passed largely to ensure that class sizes would stay low. How is it they can take money from citizens promising this and then not follow through?

This is sad and angering. Supers seem to cursed with a strain of lowsy. This is when the people enRead More masse need to stand up for the teachers and start their own pot of relief until the over due raise comes on line.

Thanks for the gesture. I'm one of those South Pas teachers. It would also be nice if you could askRead More the superintendent, now that we have historically high reserves (thanks partly to teachers taking on more work and receiving no raise for five years) and stable financing from the state, could we please now get a cost of living increase? He's refusing to allow us to negotiate this matter.

If by "learning loss" is meant student forgets what he has learned, then I would guessRead More that there was no learning at all, but a memorization of facts given. If by learning loss is meant there was a gap where no curricula was given, then that is just the point of Summer Break. Learning other non class room subjects such as what a hike in the forest has to offer..a trip to the beach...reading a good book. Just sitting under a tree and enjoying. My first impression of LearnBop was it was learning how to dance the Bop to Little Richard or Bill Hailey. Now, that is something even I could get into.

I cant tell you where I live....you would ban my posts ! But, my childhood roots are in Glendale,Read More but I have many pleasant memories of the Pasadena Winter Garden where I used to skate when I has about twelve (1950). I was playing with puberty and oh, the girls in their shortie dresses and legs....There was such a romantic feel to the place. I think I recall a circular wood burner in which there was a fire going on cold days and nights. I still have a punch card showing I was a member of the Penguin Club. There is an area in Glendale that has a peculiar feel to it and it is between Virginia and Mountain....roughly between Ruberta and Central. This isnt Pasadena, of course. That area was my stomping grounds in the 40's. Right there, I thought...it was right there where we talked and laughed....under the light of a street lamp..she was so very cute and precocious. All gone away so long ago..I "heard" her laugh in a capricious breeze that sprang, up...also carrying the scents of Jasmine...So many stories like this in Pasadena too. The people who came and went, but left in their wake a presence like a fire fly's glowing arc.
