"Love To Beg" Tour Coming to a Town Near You!

Hey All,

Just a quick note to say that I'm really looking forward to starting the "Love To Beg" tour on February 3rd in Erfurt, Germany! It's the month of love, and a great time to be a DFB "Lover"!

I’m happy to welcome aboard our new drummer, Tom Curiano.

We know many of the same musicians in NYC and I heard he was great, but when Tom came in for the audition, I was floored. You'll certainly hear why soon. He's also a killer singer so we'll have some sweet harmonies. We've had a lot of fun doing late night vocal rehearsals at my apartment. Of course we'll be joining up with our dear friend and bassist Walter Latupeirissa in Hamburg on Tuesday for more rehearsing, then we'll hit the stage.

Man, I need this. I need you all!

On a personal front, my brother Don decided 2 weeks ago to give treatment a try. Hallelujah. While there's no cure for Glioblastoma, with treatment he can have a little more time with us. I have many of YOU to thank for this. Your emails telling me of people you knew who've gone through this treatment with good results were so helpful and encouraging to Don and the rest of us.

So far he's doing well with the treatment and the side effects have been minimal. Doctors think he's young enough to possibly get another 12 months. Of course I am hoping for miraculously more, but as we know, these things are out of our hands. I have another trip planned with him in May in between tours. So, please continue to keep him in your thoughts, prayers, chants, rain-dances, whatever! Who knows, maybe he'll even join me on stage in NYC this April for a song!

Speaking of April, tickets for the Highline Ballroom show in NYC on April 15th are now on sale!! This is the US CD release show and we'll have some very special guest musicians on stage. It promises to be a show like you've never seen!

Please follow us on Facebook, MySpace , Twitter and DanaFuchs.com for the latest news, music give-aways and tourdates which are still being added!

All My Love & Eternal Gratitude,
Dana

PS. For those of you who've been asking, we WILL have the new CD 'Love To Beg" available for sale after every show starting Feb 3rd! Come say hi and get your copy signed.
