She is the new voice of Denver, and is already known to musicians worldwide. I speak of the unique Elin Palmer. She has played with Devotchka, M.Ward, and a few other notable artists. If that alone were her claim to fame it would be enough. Her own music is sublime & enchanting. Tonight is the CD release party for Postcard, her debut solo CD. Come by & buy a CD.

Friday October 30, 2009 – Starz Film Center – Denver, CO
This is a shameless plug for a film that has become part of my life. I didn’t write it, direct it, or have any part but fall in love with it. It has been playing nationwide in small screening from NYC, LA, Alexandria, Portland & Seattle and many more. It ran for 8 weeks when it was here last. The film is Ink, a dark fantasy film that Hollywood could never imagine. Join me there. For more information go to www.doubleedgefilms.com |
