About David Kaufman
I emcee open mic night for the 50th time
Back in 2011 the wonderful Penny Moore, who runs a wonderful facility called The Actors Group in Burbank, CA, recruited me to “bring the music” by way of hosting a monthly singer/songwriter open mic night. It’s been a pleasure and an honor for me to welcome musicians of all levels and styles. Tomorrow (9/11/15) marks the 50th time we have held this event, which has nurtured new talents just getting their feet wet and provided a casual workout forum for veteran musicians.
The Actors Group is located at 2813 W. Magnolia Blvd. in Burbank, CA. Street parking. No cover charge. Original or cover songs are fine. Sweets on sale for $1. Comfortable chairs. Easy-going atmosphere. And get this – I will personally video one song from each artist and send it to you for free. Sign up starts at 7:00. Music starts at 7:30.
Acting? Genius!
I am scheduled to be a featured raconteur for tomorrow night’s Story Salon in N.Hollywood, CA I’ll be switching from music and sharing some of my experiences in the thespian world. 9/9/15 The Art Parlor 5302 Laurel Canyon Blvd. 7:30, $5 cover. Several other fine performers.
The horror! The horror! (haircut)
The woman who has been cutting my hair since 1996 has moved to Hawaii. Apparently, it’s TOO MUCH TO ASK for her to fly me out there several times a year in order to maintain the lifestyle (hairstyle) I’ve been accustomed to. Some people only think of themselves!
Scratch meets Grace Note in the Theatre
The majority of songs from the album are being incorporated int a compelling new stage play, “Grace Note.” My music, conceived and recorded completely independently of the play, has been deemed by the makers of Grace Note as the perfect aural compliment to their work. (Take note, film makers!) Limited engagement, so make your reservations now. Info in poster below.
Let’s go!
Looks like I’ve got some catching up to do, blog-wise! Yes, the album “Scratch,” did come out on May 22 and that was a very good thing!
You know what? Let’s just skip to the present.
