I’m gonna be honest- it’s hard to make a hotel room feel like home when I’m on the road, but here’s a few things in my routine that keep me grounded while I’m away 🥹

get un-ready with me :)

It’s week two of my family holiday tour and I wanted to show you how I get un-ready after a night on stage! Some of my skincare favorites are Caudalie, Bioderm and Tatcha cream :) and shoutout to Alexis Bittar for the earrings!

hey y'all! I wanted to share one of my many playlists that I listen to you to relax my mind while on the road :) listening is fundamental and this is one of my favorites!

fyi when listening to jazz, I usually like listening to the record as opposed to a playlist :)))

France is always good to me 🇫🇷❤️ stopped by Paris and Tours for some amazing concerts!! people were so close to the stage I thought they were gonna come up there with me 😭 ate delicious food, bought some gifts for my parents, and even thrifted this 100 percent wool vintage piece for the fall :))) au revoir, Paris & a plus tarde!

and just like that, it’s a wrap on the July tour in EU! This tour has been so incredibly fulfilling, the energy from night to night was unbelievable, and the band was on fire - both on stage and when we started playing cards haha.

I’m so grateful for all the people I got to meet and shake hands with, telling me how my voice and music has affected them. As a little girl, I never imagined that this is what I would be doing in life - I just knew I loved to sing. I get to share that love every night and I’m so so blessed to be able to do so. Thank y’all for tuning into these updates, can’t wait for the next run!

tour really shows you that being able to do laundry is a luxury - and that’s all I’ll say haha 

but we made our way to Santander and San Javier in Spain and opened for Grace Jones today in Stuttgart <3 

After the gig in Santander, an old friend brought pictures of me from about 4 years when I was doing my first gig at one of my favorite nyc jazz clubs. Time flies and we’re about to have so much fun in France for the last three gigs of the tour :)))

slowly losing track of the days & where I am but we experienced quite the weather shift from hot-as-heck Italy one day to cold-as-ice Norway the next 🥶 

hotel rooms kinda blurrin together but nonetheless, both festivals and their audiences were so inviting to us, I loved the energy!!! it continues to inspire us with each night and each person who has had a positive encounter with the music and my voice :)))

off to hotter than hot Spain!

didn’t get to take as many pics but had the chance to play at this legendary over 2,000 year old amphitheater in France for the festival Jazz a Vienne 🥹 bought the dress on the same day because I like adventure. Also lovin the variety of food choices here in Europe! As long as I can end everyday with some ice cream, I’m happy :)

[samarajoysings]

sang in juan les pins and went parasailing for the first time!! not a bad way to spend a few days in France :)) also the band and I are having so much fun playin together and developing our sound in the midst of such beautiful audiences!!

headed to jazz a vienne tomorrow!

[samarajoysings]
