New Artist - Carla Morrison - Must see

In line for Julieta Venegas with Esmeralda, excited to see her live. After an hour of standing in heels (so irritating but all Latinas wear heels to any event and we didn't want to feel left out) waiting for the diva to come out, I noticed a girl come out to the stage and I honestly thought she was doing a mic check. She was dressed so simple, in denim jeans and cute trendy top but not very flashy at all. But once she opened her mouth and I heard her angelic voice, I realized this is not a mic check. I was there witnessing the birth of a star.

Carla Morrison is from Tecate and her drummer from Tijuana. Just the two was all it took to entertain this San Diego crowd. I'm not sure how the rest of the crowd felt. They seemed a little confused. Like they weren't sure if they liked her or they just wanted to see the safe to like, I've heard millions of times so I'm not taking any risks in listening, mainstream, pop diva, Julieta. It's not a bad thing but I think most people have been trained by the radio to only like what's on the radio. Nothing against Julieta. I love her music. It's why we were there. But in my opinion, this new starlet stole the show. So I hope that people can open their mind and ears to new incredible talent.

Hot BoXX SD @ El Camino in Little Italy - Jan 21, 2011 feat. Junior the Disco Punk

Last night we had Micheladas and Tequila shots in celebration of the Hot Boxx's relaunch at El Camino. We streamed live from the back patio. Our special guest was DJ Junior The Disco Punk! Junior is booked pretty much everyday of the week in clubs and bars all around San Diego. He's a full time daddy to Juliette and full time bad ass DJ. He's known for his 80's electric beats and of course for making people shake their rumps all night long. With Junior's impeccable taste in music, it is always a guaranteed ass shaking fun night! And that, my love, is talent. I've posted his links down below for easy access.

We also had the chance to talk a little more to Mauricio Couturier, the amazing master mind behind El Camino. I can't tell you how impressed I was to find out that he was the designer behind this magnificent spot. Double whammy baby! An intelligent proven business man but designer as well. You must go to El Camino! With 2 locations, Little Italy and South Park (oh the one in South Park is fabulous too by the way). Mauricio said they have the best Chile Relleno so I'm going back asap for those! And if you're crazy about Sunday Brunch and Mimosas, you can't beat $1 mimosas! I give this place two thumbs way way up!
