A friend was recently extolling the virtues of local Oaklandite, Mara Hruby. She rocks a nice cover of D’angelo’s “Send it On” as well as songs from Stereolab, Bob Marley, and Jamiroquai on her release, “From Her Eyes”. You can check out more of her music on her bandcamp page. Incidentally, she’s also playing tonight at Yoshi’s Oakland…

A quick thanks to everyone who donated money to help get Dilla’s daughters some Christmas presents from his fans. I’m about to wrap things up and put some sparkle on them, but I thought you might like to see what we ended up getting (remind me to start this earlier next year…I have been running around headless all week!) I was talking to Madukes today, and she thinks they’re going to be surprised!
