Danielle Lo Presti--Breaking News Update

Danielle Lo Presti

This is a quick post on the beloved San Diego innovative singer/songwriter/music promoter Danielle Lo Presti who was recently diagnosed with a life challenging illness. A shout out to her at this time of personal and spiritual challenge. She can use our prayers and positive thoughts. Here's a sample of her promotional work as the founding creator behind San Diego's innovative and grassroots supported Indiefest presented here in San Diego California. It features performers from around the world.

Danielle's energizing stage presence is an incredible experience for all who attend her concerts. I have been a fan ever since I heard the opening vocals on a promotion CD and as a result, covered the gala award winning 22 Mountains CD release party for my original Carpe Noctum blog in 2003.

Thank you to the press people of Danielle Lo Presti and the Masses and Sayit Records who sent me the update. Danielle became more than "another performer story" to cover over the years.

Prayers for a friend,
Delores Fisher

Starla Lewis Professor Emeritus: A New Year's Gift January 2024 Post 1

We all think about those negative influences that we would all like to forget; yet we often neglect to acknowledge those positive warriors who quietly and compassionately help us shoulder dark toxic angst, while nurturing us back to the light of healthy joy. This 2024 January post is to celebrate one of the positive life warrior-healers that I cherish. If you have one of these people in your life, did you stop and give God thanks for them? (If you don't have one, prayerfully your life will soon be blessed. If you do and you didn't offer thanks yet---how about doing it now?) In the traditional Black American community, we have a custom known as "Give them their flowers (while they yet live)." Selfless fabulous people have invested quality time and positivity into my life. This first post is a huge thank you/shout out and a huge Kuumba bouquet of red fragrant roses to my community minded sistah-- professor Starla Lewis!

Part of A Legacy:Calvary Baptist Church San Diego

Those of you following me on Twitter and at The Center For World Music: https://centerforworldmusic.org/about-us/board/ know that I was a pianist at Calvary Baptist Church in San Diego California back in the day. Charles Ray was the organist/pianist, professor Jean Wesson was the music director. I also played accompanied the Calvary Baptist Church Youth Choir under the direction of Carol Durgan.
