Well, I'm finally getting caught up on everything from being on vacation. Since I didn't have a lot of time or energy this week to focus on my theme, it ended up being very simple. My husband and I wanted to go to Mile of Music in downtown Appleton, WI. Mile of Music is, "We’re all about original, hand-crafted artistry, and we’re eager to serve up singer-songwriters, combos and multi-piece bands showcasing Americana music at its very best — from roots and indie rock to country, soul, r&b, jazz and folk."
We knew a few of the bands that were playing so we decided to see what it was all about. Well, actually we only got to see one performer but that's ok because we love her music. Auralai is made up of Stephanie Tschech and her cello named Cranky Agnes! Yep that's right, it's just a girl and her cello but man can she play and sing. Amazing!
We then ate some dinner at a Mexican place (we just walked in and never looked to see what the name of the restaurant was!) and our total bill was only $11. Can you believe that??? I don't think I've ever eaten at a sit down restaurant, gotten two meals and drinks for that cheap! We'll have to go back and find out the name too.
After dinner we wanted to see Wilfret & Miss, which is Stephanie from Auralai and Nicole Rae from The Traveling Suitcase. But Nicole had tonsillitis so we saw Stephanie play again. Which is just horrible because she is so good! Actually the acoustics were much better so we enjoyed it a little more.
If you are looking for new music, check out Auralai and The Traveling Suitcase. They both rock! You will not be sorry.
