Loved St. Luke’s!

Wow, it’s not often that we get to play in a place with the acoustics of a 200-year-old church. But that’s what we got at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church in San Francisco last night. Lisa’s violin didn’t even need a mic! We also debuted an original song…a first for Chinese Melodrama! It was actually such [...]

And check out the super-cute ambience in the back courtyard…a coi pond and everything! We talked up our gig with the locals while stocking [...]
