Soaring melodic lines that stretch a prodigious vocal range, rhythmic intensity, compelling chorus, a crowd-moving anthem. Iron Maiden and Led Zeppelin: a reinvention of these classic rock anthems with a female point of view.
Side One EP - Release Date 9/23/2014
I produced a huge show at the Anaheim House Of Blues with Jenny Kidd as my opening act. I had fierce dancers, original choreography, a killer band, rad costumes, surprise guests, some original tunes, merch, contests, meet and greets before and after the show, VIPs. All of it. All my vision. Stan Freese even graced us with a tuba solo. We worked really hard and we packed the place. I just really wanted to have a new album to sell for this huge show I had planned. It was kind of a backwards way to do it. Usually you release an album and THEN do a show to promote it, but I didn’t want to show up empty handed. It had to be a very small EP because that’s all my budget (all of my releases before PledgeMusic have been completely self funded) would allow at the time. It was also my very first time being able to offer “Official” Tomasina T-Shirts, Buttons, and Posters! It was a proud moment for me to have accomplished all of this just in time for the show. It’s what I continue working towards doing full time. Creating my own shows, my own music and my own vision for fans all over the state, the country and eventually the world. Yes the EP is small, but it represents a lot of hard work in the right direction.
