As summer draws near to a close, I am proud of the accomplishments I have made. I finished recording all the tracks on my upcoming EP, and had my single professionally mastered by my friend, Will Borza of Sony. Have a listen!
The single will soon be accompanied by a music video that I directed, which was shot by my brother, Dustin Westover, starring myself and the devastatingly handsome and talented, Mike Escamillo. Be on the lookout for "The Reward" music video in the month of September!
My show at the Rep in Newhall on July 30th was a great success, largely due to my talented bandmates: Mike Escamillo on keyboard, Jesse Fletcher on guitar, Chris Wakelin on drums, Blake Collins on bass, and my lovely friends Jillinda Palmer and Stormie Cueto singing backup vocals. I was so excited and thankful to see so many beautiful, smiling faces show up to watch my show and hear my music. Thanks again to everyone who made it out to downtown Newhall that night. Live video recordings are still to come, but for now, here are a few photos, taken by people in the audience that night:
Here is the beautiful flyer for the show, created by my good friend, the talented artist, photographer, and graphic designer, Kay Kelman (nakedcanvasart.com):
Yes, the summer is ending, and a brand new and exciting year of teaching high school music is upon me, but my work here has just begun. As the music video wraps and the album is being mixed and mastered, I am planning my official Brittney Westover "Anything is Possible" EP Release Party! I'm still deciding on a date and venue, but I promise to update you as soon as it is decided! In the meantime, come see me and Mike perform at a Tribute to TV Theme Songs Night at the Satellite in Silverlake this coming Tuesday, August 18th! We will be performing classic cartoon and drama theme songs from the 80s, 90s, and today! Don't miss it! The fun begins at 8:30pm.
Enjoy what's left of the summer! I'll be at an SCVi Staff Retreat in Big Bear this weekend, hopefully escaping the brutal end of summer LA heatwave! Stay cool, my friends!
Love & Grace,
Brittney
