Just a little update

Hi Folks!!

Been a while since I have blogged.  I really not convinced people read this anyway . . .

Anyway, the knew EP is slowly but surely making its way in the world.  I have been battling Valley Fever and taking things slow.  It is also summer here in Phoenix--and I  am in hibernation mode.  Nonetheless, 90% of the tracks have been laid down--meaning most instruments and vocals have been recorded.  I have been working closely with David Searle, the magic behind Green World Recording---www.GreenworldRecordings.com--to get things grooving.  I had an amazing photo shot with Justine Miller--www.JustineMillerPhotography.com-- you can see the results on the photo page of my web site: www.PatriciaSilverberg.com.  I also selected a CD manufacturer and a graphic artist.  I also will probably an intern to launch major radio campaign, so life is good.

I have cut down on gigs for a few reasons.  I have posted a few local ones on my site and been asked to perform in places like Las Vegas, Portland, Seattle, and Los Angeles. So we shall see what the future brings. 

Cheers!

Patricia Silverberg on the Radio

Hey folks!!

While I am putting the final touches on my new EP, I have been also working getting radio for the 1st single of the new album, Tell Me Again and my 1st CD, As Simple as it Seems.

Just in the last two weeks, I have been played or added to the following radio stations:

• "Give Me Light" was spun on The Wimmins Show hosted by Deb Anderson on KZUM--89.3 FM from Lincoln, NE. My song was played on the same live show with such greats as Joni Mitchell, Norah Jones, Beth Orton, and Cassandra Wilson.
• Tell Me Again closed  theRadio Crystal Blue's  5/19 broadcast.  Tune in to hear the podcast at www.radiocrystalblu.net .
• Several of my songs from Simple as it Seems are now in regular rotation on  www.Amazradio.org -- the 24/7 Internet radio station dedicated to preserving folk, Americana, and Indie music from Arizona and beyond. 

Whoo-hoo!~~Play on!!

Arizona Singers Raise their Voices to Raise Funds for Singers Nation-Wide

Arizona folk singers gather to help singers across the nation. On Saturday, February 26, 2011, Patricia Silverberg, Mary Godfrey, Joe Bethancourt, Terry and Diane McCabe, and duo Jess Hawk Oakenstar and Kate deLaPointe (otherwise known as Wayward Maggie) take part in a benefit show for Society of Singers (SOS)—a non-profit dedicated to assisting professional singers across the country and across all genres. This wonderful life saving organization is struggling to keep its doors open and struggling to provide services such as rental and medical assistance to those in grave need.


Patricia Silverberg, the benefit organizer states, “Society of Singers was there for me when it seemed the whole world turned its back. Even with two Master’s degrees, I was out of work for a year. SOS not only provided rental assistance, but also lots of personalized attention. I wasn’t a faceless, nameless welfare case. It is time to pay it forward and help them continue to help others.”

The benefit takes place Saturday, February 26, 2011 at Fiddler's Dream, 1702 E. Glendale Ave, Phoenix. Doors open at 7 PM. Suggested donation is $10. The benefit features an autographed CD raffle, including those CDs donated by famous folk singers such as Natalie Merchant, The Indigo Girls, Lucinda Williams, Janis Ian, and Holly Near.
