The morning of my gig at Bar East, I participated in Pleasantdale Elementary School's Career Day in West Orange, New Jersey. I was actually more nervous at how the kids would respond to what I had prepared to talk to them about "the life of a musician" (so to speak) than I was about my show in the city later that evening.
It turned out to be one of the most awesome and fulfilling things I've done in a while. The kids inspired me so much! Was so excited to hear that they love keeping journals and they were showing me song lyrics they had written. A couple of them even got up in front of the classroom and sang for me!
It was a great morning and I am definitely looking forward to the next one!
