Terror on the Lower East Side

Hello friends

I’m sad to write this. I try to make my newsletters information pieces about events and news happenings with my music. But with what’s been happening in my beloved New York City I regrettably have to write about all the chaos that’s been happening and I hate to share this with you.

Last night was the most unsettling night that my family and I have experienced since living in the lower east side (which has been since 2002). There were helicopters overhead until early hours of the morning and there were sounds of gunshots/explosions in the distance throughout the night as well. The local Rite Aid was held up by gunpoint and stores in Soho, which is not far from where we live were vandalized and looted. I’m sure most of you have seen this on TV… It’s sad and terrifying.

At the risk of sounding political, I call on mayor DiBlasio to issue a curfew until this chaos ends. I ask of him to take control of what’s going on and bring law and order back to this amazing city that we all love. Not to mention, there still is a pandemic and all these people congregating in large groups can’t help with ending the pandemic. I applaud the peaceful demonstrators. The peaceful demonstrations are important. However, we all need and want to move forward with our lives in a healthy way. The turmoil and lack of social distancing does not help things.

I pray for the family of George Floyd… Racism and police brutality cannot be tolerated in any way and it has to stop. At the same time, I honor those police officers and first responders who put their lives on the line every day during these horrific times we are living in. I know in my heart that WE WILL prevail over the virus and the chaos that is happening and a better world will emerge. I truly believe its starts with us. Let’s all live our lives in a loving way. Love always wins.

You don’t have to agree with me, this is just my observation.

I’m sending my prayers and love to each and every one of you.

Now let me get off of my soap box!

Hi everyone! There’s so much going on!

I’ve just released a new video of my song New York City Nights (which is from my current CD UNLEASHED). The video depicts what life is like at night here in lower Manhattan during the Covid 19 pandemic. It was shot entirely on my iPhone 8 by my son Jasper and I. I had the idea to do a video of this song for a while. I finally decided with the situation as it is with the virus, to do something that reflects what my hometown is going through. PLEASE CHECK IT OUT!

Hi Everyone!

I want to thank those of you who checked out my Aries Birthday YouTube live show! There was an issue with the link when the show started. I know that many of you could not watch the show. In case you missed it here is the link:

On a personal note, not that my newsletters are not personal! My family: Judy, my son Jasper and I have been riding it out here in the center of the Coronavirus storm on the lower east side. Being a native New Yorker, there are many things that annoy me and thrill me about this amazing city that we live in. Most recently it’s nice to see how people have been taking social distancing and wearing masks to heart. We are truly a team as a nation now working together to get past this pandemic. I’m wishing every one of you readers that you stay safe and healthy through this tragic era in our history.

Also, I will be announcing a special YouTube live “From NYC” afternoon show that will be geared for my European fans. Stay tuned for info on that!

Again, stay safe. I plan to see you all when this virus passes.

Huge hugs from six feet away.
