Christy Snow: Journal

One last Sunday on the set of Yankee Tavern, yes the last Sunday of Church in a Bar for Spiritual Living Center of Charlotte.

 

Christy and the Spiritual Living Center folks singing I Sing My Love, with a little something funky thrown into the middle.

 

Watch the video of Joe LaSalle's song "When I Choose Love" and yes this is church in a bar. The Spiritual Living Center of Charlotte is loving its new home at the Actor's Theatre of Charlotte and sometimes the set is entertaining in and of itself such as this one for the play "Yankee Tavern!" Enjoy this beautiful song written by a beautiful soul!

Opening the service at the Spiritual Living Center of Charlotte with songs by Dale Worley "All Is Well" and Joe LaSalle "Love and Thats All". Special thanks to everyone at SLC and the One Love Choir. We sure have good time!

It was such an honor to sing for the benefit of the American Foundation for Children With Aids at the Neighborhood Theatre with Ladianne & Joanna on Friday the 6th. I do apologize to the girls that they are cut out of the video but I only had about 60 seconds before we went on stage to explain the camera and it wasn't until after the fact that I realized I never explained how to zoom out. Just know they sounded and looked fabulous! :-)

Watch a few clips from the evening:

Join us for the grand opening of Story Slam Charlotte! I will be joined by Free Spirits Ladianne Mandel on mandolin, vocals and bass and Joanna Gerdy on drums and vocals. The reading starts at 7:30pm and the music starts at 9:30pm. THIS FRIDAY AND SATURDAY AUGUST 14 & 15.

Flying off to Baltimore for a fantastic and fun filled weekend. Join me for a Friday night Taize service, Saturday Day Retreat, Sunday Morning Celebration with music and message and Sunday night Concert. Whew....that's a good time.

Then it is back to Charlotte for a show at the Grape on Sat. July 25th with Ladianne Mandel on bass and mandolin and Joanna Gerdy on hand drums with some sweet three part harmony....check it out! Oh and by the way the Grape has great food and a wonderful wine selection so plan to make a night of it. It is easy to find, right between AMC and Belk at Northlake Mall.

Wow! What a blast! After 18 years of performing both solo and with lots of other folks joining me from time to time I have to say last Saturday night was one of the best times I have EVER had performing!!! If you missed it don't worry, we are busy booking more "Christy Snow and the Free Spirits" shows. We'll be back at Pewter Rose April 11th and at The Evening Muse for a LIVE CD recording on June 20th!.

The Free Spirits are...
Brandon Weiner on drums, Rick Walt on bass and the girls - Stacey Kirkpatrick, Joanna Gerdy and Lane Morris singing backup.

Let us know if you have a venue you want Christy and the Free Spirits to perform at and we'll give them a shout.

Christy will be performing at the Pewter Rose - 1820 South Blvd. Charlotte on Feb. 7th from 8:30pm until 11pm. She will be joined by bassist Rick Walt and drummer Brandon Weiner. Join us in celebrating the release of the new CD "I Sing My Love!"

I am finally about to "Sing My Love" into the world!!! The NEW chant CD is almost finished and I am happy to say I think you will be pleased with the result of the delay. If I had been finished in July as I first intended then the CD would not have included three of my favorite new chants; "I See You" is a simple affirmation of seeing the light and love in every individual. "Breath of Thanks" was inspired in July when I had the privilege of working with Dr. Fred Luskin and he led the participants through a gratitude exercise with the same name during one of his Forgive For Good Workshops. Then in September at the fantastic Sand, Sea and Spirit retreat in Gulf Shores, Alabama I spontaneously released this chant medley which reflects Hindu, Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Native American and Sufi influences.

So a HUGE Thank You to all of you who pre-ordered the CD and helped it into being and for your patience with the creative process of music and life!

Stay tuned and I will let you know just as soon as it is ready to go. Hey, just think...anyone that you forget to buy a Christmas present for you can just tell them you really didn't forget but rather you were waiting for Christy's new CD:-)

Happy Holidays!
Much love,
Christy
P.S. The creative juices are flowing in a multitude of ways and I have realized that "I Sing My Love" is the first in a trilogy. The next one "I Dance My Joy" will be multicultural chants all set to dance music. The plan is to start recording this next one in January!

Hi Everyone,
I am embracing alot of shift and growth right now as I know is common with most everyone I speak with these days. I am taking the month of September to be on Sabbatical from my work at the Center For Positive Living here in Charlotte. Some wonderful things that are coming out of this time of renewal and expansion for me are; making my way back into the studio for a couple of projects and taking time for reflection and introspection to work on writing my first book.

In a very short time my new chant CD "I Sing My Love" will be complete and available to help remind us all to remain in our heart space and let the love that we are lead the way through life's changes. For those of you who have supported this work with your pre-order, thank you and thank you for your patience. I had expected the release of this CD to be July but I am so glad that did not come to be as I have written several new chants that will make this project even more special!

I am also in process of completing a guided meditation CD which is supported by my Native American Flute Music and is built around the theme of saying "YES" to life.

As always I am enjoying teaching flute classes and performing my folk shows. In addition I am also thrilled about the new ways that I am being asked to share! I am now traveling around to different Spiritual Communities as guest speaker and retreat/workshop facilitator as well as assisting communities through leadership workshops.

Some say it is because I am a Gemini that I like to express in so many ways. I think it is just saying "YES" to life and allowing the creative flow of the Universe to flow through me in whatever way is necessary in the moment.

Thank you for sharing the journey!
In love & gratitude,
Christy

Hi All,
Well here comes summer and what a great year it has been so far. I am happy to report that the Virginia Women's Music Festival was better than ever this year with 379 women in attendance. Next year will probably be an even bigger year for them considering the press they received this year in the New York Times!!! Go Girls! www.campoutva.com
Ms. Renee Leboa & I are gearing up to head to Kansas City for a very special weekend at Unity Village. We will be facilitating a Native American Spirituality and New Thought Retreat June 16-18.

In other news I am happy to say that almost all of my CDs are back in stock. It is a good problem to have when you sell out of CDs but it sure feels good to have them back in stock. Solid Ground is the only one we are still waiting on and it will be restocked soon.

Speaking of CDs, the plan is to hit the studio this winter to begin working on a new Christy vocal CD as well as a joint spiritual CD with Renee. I'll keep you posted.

That's the brief version of the latest goings on:-)

Hope to see you soon.
Thanks for your continued support!
Love,
Christy
