NYC SHOW ANNOUNCED @ HIGHLINE BALLROOM ON MAY 18 FOR A NEW CONCERT DVD/LIVE CD!

Hi All,

Please join me for my first hometown FULL BAND show of 2012 in NYC at Highline Ballroom on May 18th @ 8pm.

When I say full band, I mean FULL BAND!   I have a really special night of music planned with special guest performers and I'll debut some new songs too for the exclusive one night only filming and recording of my next new Concert DVD and Live CD.












 
I haven't even come up with a title for the DVD & CD yet, so please feel free to chime in here with suggestions!

Playing Highline Ballroom is always an extraordinary night for me and I plan to go all out to deliver my hometown crowd the best show I possibly can so that I can release it as a concert film and CD to share with the rest of my friends around the globe!

Who knows, maybe some of my European friends will even fly in for the show. (hint!)


I'm really excited for all of you to be involved in this show with me so please get your tickets here as they always seem to go fast!


Here's looking forward to being back home together with you all this May 18th.

Love,
Dana

April Showers Bring May Flowers, Upcoming Shows & Good News!

First off, I'm excited to see our friends in Ephrata, PA this Friday the 13th at the Ephrata Main Theatre.   It's such a great music room and we'll be joined by the great Tim Luntzel (Rosanne Cash) on bass guitar for this one.  Tim's a wild man on and off the stage so Lord only knows what will go down - but it will be jaw-dropping no doubt.   

THEN….

…Sunday I head to the UK for 5 duo shows with Jon Diamond in support of the UK Release of Love To Beg.  We'll be sharing the bill with our Ruf Records label-mate, the young brilliant (and gorgeous) Oli Brown.  

Kicking off on 4-17 @ Newcastle O2 Academy.   

Then it's off to Italy and Holland for some festivals and club shows.   

To see all the dates click here:  

SO, WHAT ARE THE CRITICS  SAYING ABOUT Love To Beg?

Well, the reviews are in and they’re stellar!  (even the harsh UK critics are diggin' it)

Relix Magazine calls Love To Beg“ a must-buy … sparkling and lovingly crafted.”  

Downbeat says, “Fuchs sings up a storm on her second studio album.”  

And Classic Rock Magazine, UK writes, “…juke-joint dirty and illicit, evoking Joplin, Jagger, and a fag butt bobbing in a glass of bourbon …” (that one's my fave.)  ;-) 

Simply head over to our Newly Updated Press Page to read all the full reviews AND THEN head over to our New Updated Music Page to listen to Love To Beg in it’s entirety!   

You can also get the full streaming Albums Lonely For A Lifetime and Live In NYC.  

Listen to everything and share with your friends via Soundcloud!

BETTER TO BE FIRST OR LAST?

YOU decide this Friday!

We'll be playing our first show at the infamous Mexicali Live this Friday at 9pm Sharp! 


It is our first time playing in The Garden State of New Jersey!

This also is our first full band show in the US for 2012 and our LAST show for the winter in our home country.  I'm leaving for Germany, France and Czech Republic next week!




  
Thanks to all of you who packed the Iridium and tuned in from all over the world for the webcast.  

It was one of the highest viewed web casts in the history of the club.  :-)

I'll be back home in April and have tons of US and Europe tour dates lined up for the rest of this year.


Meanwhile, I'm set to release my next record this summer, it's an all acoustic CD entitled "Broken Down" featuring new material and a few special guest artists. 

Stay tuned for more info and I look forward to seeing you in New Jersey and beyond!

Love,
Dana

Iridium NYC this Sunday @ 8pm & Live Webcast!

NYC is where it all began for me, so just for you, I convinced the Iridium to allow me to do one 90 minute set for one price, as opposed to their usual policy of two 45 minute sets for double the price! :-)

This is a more economical proposition for you all and it allows me to stretch out and do my thing!

I have a very special night of music planned. Jon Diamond and I will anchor the night and we'll be joined on stage by virtuoso gentlemen Matt Beck and Jon Regen.
Seating is limited, so act fast and get your tickets here if you plan on coming to the show.

If you can't make it to the Iridium click here to see a Live Webcast of the show!

Here's a little about our guests:

Matt Beck is a prodigious musician who has toured the world with Rod Stewart, Joss Stone and Matchbox 20, to name a few and he holds it down every week on Broadway at Spiderman: Turn Off The Dark. Matt will display his immense talent on guitar, dobro, mandolin & accordion.

Jon Regen is a renowned pianist/singer/songwriter who has toured with jazz legend Jimmy Scott as well as Kyle Eastwood, and now fronts his own jazzy/rock trio touring the world!

The Iridium is a legendary room and I'm proud to play it for the first time so I hope you'll join us.

If you plan to view the webcast send me a note on Facebook so I can say hi!

See you there!

Love,
Dana

Here, There and EVERYWHERE!

Greetings from The Home Office in NYC!

New Friend

It was wonderful touring AND Walkin' in a (Scandinavian) Winter Wonderland!  Many shows were SOLD OUT and all of them were packed.  I had an unbelievable blast hanging with the band and our new friends on the off days.

Thank you Norway and Denmark for letting me spit and sweat all over you.  (Maybe it was a welcome heat from your crazy cold land?!)  ;-) 

I am so excited to add Scandinavia to our new list of "homes" in this wide wacky world.

Blizzard Flight

Piero is always right behind me

De-Icing the Wings

I must add a special thank you and praise to the pilots and crews of Norwegian Air.  I flew with them every single day on this tour and these pilots flew safely showing great aplomb in weather that would have crippled flights here in the States.  In short, they are Badasses to the last man and woman.

Smuggling Extra Carry on Baggage

 

I look forward to seeing you all again for some major festivals this summer (always check our tour dates please!) 
















 


I'm thrilled to announce new dates for shows in the USA!

3-04-12    Iridium Jazz Club - NYC Tickets 8 pm Tickets 10pm

3-09-12    Mexicali Live – Teaneck, NJ (Full Band Show) 8pm Tickets
Our first time in NJ!  I hear it's a cool room and we will ROCK it with the full band!

We have many more US shows coming this spring and summer.  Plus, our NYC full band show and live DVD filming will be announced soon!  Then we'll be back in the Northeast, down South and out West so stay tuned!

It's back to Germany on March 15th for several shows there followed by our first shows in the Czech Republic and France!  I can't wait.   I've been doing tons of press and interviews for the upcoming shows and I'm getting great tips for what to do on days off in Prague and Paris.   I hope I'll find some new "homes" there!

Lastly, thanks to those of you ticket holders for your patience and understanding about our Sellersville PA show date change.  We had to accommodate a band member who needed to travel due to a family member's illness. 

All Are Welcome

Again, life is short and precious SO LET'S CELEBRATE LIFE TOGETHER IN OUR CHURCH OF LOVE, PEACE & JOY where all of you AND your beliefs are welcome!  :-)

Peace, Love & Happiness,
Dana
