Mona's Music Blog

Music has been an important part of my life for as long as I can remember. Moments are created through music. Emotions lived and reveled in. Friends are found in strangers, because of music’s power to bring people together. This blog is inspired by that spirit, and by all those whose ears and hearts cause them to adventure and wander far. For the love of music. Welcome!

LONNY MONTEM

J’ai connu Lonny Montem par un ami musicien lors d’un de ses concerts à L’International à Paris : dès les premiers sons de sa voix, j’ai tout de suite été touchée par sa voix fragile mais puissante. J’ai décidé d’aller la voir jouer une deuxième fois et de la prendre en photo lors de son concert aux trois baudets le mardi 3 Avril. Lonny n’est pas seule sur scène, lors de certains morceaux elle se fait accompagner d’un guitariste et d’un bassiste, il n’y a aucun instrument à percussion. Nous sommes plongés dans l’univers folk des années 70.

David Bowie’s Tribute at Churchill’s Pub

David Bowie is born on a January 8th, like me. I never been a huge fan of Bowie: saying that I wasn’t obsessed like I am with The Beatles, I love his music but I never get deep into it/him. I saw one documentary when I was little but I only remember the fact that Mick Jagger wrote “Angy” because of Bowie’s wife, and that the two (Bowie and Jagger) were really good friends. Churchill’s Pub is one of my favorite bars in Miami. As soon as you cross the door, you’re getting to a whole new world. You’re in London, surrounded by young, old people, some of them were dressed up like Bowie. Everyone was so excited to celebrate Bowie’s birthday, I felt like all the people in bar were proud and happy to be here that night.
