Merry ChristmaChannaKwanzaa to you and you and you and especially you!

Merry ChristmaChannaKwanzaa to you and you and you and especially you!

It has been a very exciting week here at Phat Man Dee Productions, this week I was voted #2 best local jazz singer/blues act in the Pittsburgh City Paper in their 2011 Readers Poll!

Also this week I am in rehearsal for my big show at the Carnegie Science Center next Thursday December 15, 2011, an "Intergalactic Holiday Spectacular with Phat Man Dee and Guaracha", to be specific. It is also serving as my official cd release party for my new holiday ep "Merry ChristmaChannaKwanzaa Vol 1.1" Together we shall present the most rockin’ holiday happening this side of the Milky Way! Celebrate the holiday season with an astronomy-themed performance of multicultural music as I sing in the Buhl Digital Planetarium. Hear classic tunes like “Fly Me to the Moon,” and “Stardust,” against stunning visuals that take you on a stellar journey through the universe. Be among the first to hear my newest hit single, “Picksburgh Xmas”. This one-of-a-kind collaboration blends jazz and science for an unforgettable extravaganza for adults and kids alike! See one show, or stay for both! Thursday, Dec. 15 8 p.m. & 9:30 p.m.; each showtime is a unique performance. One show: $15 advance / $20 door Two shows: $25 advance / $35 door For tickets call 412.237.3400.

Laughingsquid did an amazing blog post about the event and the album!

If you just can't make the show, but wish to have the disc anyways, and did I mention the cover art was illustrated by Pittsburgh's own Rob Rogers? You can purchase the disc online!!

In between now and then I am going to have an awesome time singing for Santarchy tomorrow (though by the time you read this it might be today) so quick, grab your Santa suit and meet me down at NOLA on the Square at 2 pm. NOLA is located at 24 Market Square in downtown Pittsburgh, PA.

Or just meet us at NOLA at 2 pm, have a po'boy and listen to the music as the insanity begins.....

To those of you who were able to support by coming out to our benefits at Shadow Lounge the last 2 weeks for either Climate Ground Zero's work in West Virginia or the event at for Occupy Pittsburgh, I just wanted to thank you so much, we raised over $300 for the Climate Ground Zero folks and about $500 for the Occupy Pittsburgh people. Occupy Pgh just got an eviction notice from BNY Mellon, they are asked to leave on Sunday. I don't know what will happen to them, so please pray for them and support both of these worthy groups when and how you can.
