[Dixielandjazz] Dixielandjazz Digest, Vol 99, Issue 67 - New Orleans French Quarter Fest

Tue Apr 5 12:33:04 PDT 2011

Hi Katie,

Just finished checking out Vaud and the Villains from your post.

Definitely entertaining! 

I won't be in New Orleans unfortunately to see your act, but I was wondering if you ever make it up to the Toronto area to perform?

I will be singing at the Waterfront Cafe in Barbados on May 5th with a group of Brits who play and live in Barbados.  Must be nice!!

Enjoy the festival!

> THE GIRLS IN THE BAND tells the poignant, untold stories of female jazz and big band instrumentalists and their fascinating, groundbreaking journeys from the late 30's to the present day. These incredibly talented women endured sexism, racism and diminished opportunities for decades, yet continue today to persevere, inspire and elevate their talents in a field that seldom welcomed them.
> 
> Due to the generosity and support of our many friends and fans, we?ve raised $10,580 of our $15,000 goal for the final editing of THE GIRLS IN THE BAND. Our deepest gratitude to every one of you who opened your hearts and your checkbooks.
> 
> We?re now in the last push to raise the remaining $4,420 for the mastering, duplication, art work and packaging of the film. While that may not seem like a large amount, it?s what stands between where we are now and the all-important step of getting the film out into the world.
> 
> There is so much interest in the film and so many offers to screen it for museums, jazz festivals and educational organizations (including the Smithsonian Institution) that we know there is an eager audience awaiting the release date. We?ve asked all of those organizations to please have patience with us until we finish this last step. Will you help us get there?
> 
> There?s only a few short days left on our fundraising drive. If you?ve been thinking of supporting the film but haven?t done so yet, now is the NOW IS THE TIME! Please let us add your name to our list of Angel Funders by making a TAX-DEDUCTIBLE contribution to our Indiegogo Fundraising drive.
