Highlight Show of the Past Week
I saw Ripe at Brooklyn Paramount this week and I loved them. They had two openers, Oh He Dead and Allen Stone. I hadn’t really heard of either artist before, and they were both incredible. This was my second time seeing Ripe, and they didn’t disappoint. The energy on stage is fantastic. I think they are about to be a huge deal, I am excited I got to see them for the price I did. If you like funk, soul, jazz, and rock, listen to Ripe here.
Answering Your Questions/Talking Time
Christmas is literally here. I think I’m ready. I think I bought all the gifts I needed to. It’s time to do some last-minute packing and put everything together. Let’s hope it does eventually all come together. I think this is also a time to just reflect on your year. Be thankful for everything you’ve been through and celebrate the people who’ve been by your side this year.
