Hello my loves,

Well, summer approaches! Here in the Lone Start State, we've already hit 90 degrees for just a few days. This is definitely a nice respite for what is to come, aka 105+ degrees and outdoor natural springs.

Summer is also a time for Girls Rock Austin. I'm so happy to be associated with this wonderful mentoring program led by very talented Austin-based women musicians! We also have Member Camps through the Girls Rock Alliance in the US, Canada, South America, Europe, Japan and Australia. It's one of my favorite things to do every summer. I get to see little versions of me in the flesh - it's a total trip and a blessing to pass on my knowledge to 9-16 year old girls about the brief ins and outs of being a DJ. I co-wrote the camp song with a great group of other talented mentors, have been a Camp Counselor and taught a DJ workshop for 4 years and every year it is MAGIC. 

If you believe in the arts and refuse to let Cheeto-Mango face take artistic expression and creativity away from little girls of all walks of life, please donate now. To see the sparkle in a young girl's eyes when she finally beat-matches, perfects the melody she created with her band and sings like an angel, is pretty amazing. There are two more camps left this summer and there are scholarships available. Here's a peak at what we do. I know most of these awesome rockers. Enjoy.

Increíble estar invitada por segundo año consecutivo a @sxsw como showcasing artist! A pesar de vivir en un país con altos niveles de machismo donde una artista mujer no tiene el privilegio que tienen bandas de rock de dinero con line ups masculinos, mi música, sin ayuda de ningún manager o disquera, sigue transcendiendo mas allá de cualquier frontera 🎤🎹 #sxsw #womanist #fenixlatina #girlsrockaustin #uostyle (at SXSW)

On this day, people tend to get reflective. But this night holds a heavier significance every year since NYE of 2011. I had seen Esme a few times when I was home about a week before NYE for the first time since leaving Austin. One of my very dear friends was very close with her since they worked together at Waterloo many years ago, which is how I came to know Esme.

Even years later, it's still so shocking that such a random, terrible and violent crime could happen to someone so full of life.

Even more incredible was the outpouring of support, grief, and tribute far and wide across the country. I only knew Esme through the music scene, and really, had no idea how many people's lives she had touched outside of that world. The benefits and tributes organized were such a testament to how many people's lives she had touched and how much of herself she gave to all of her 'communities'.

Going forward, I always try to remember on this day especially - to be grateful on a daily basis for this gift of life, to express my appreciation and love to the people that matter most as often as possible, to continue to take risks, and to contribute as much as possible to my 'communities' and things I feel passionate about.

Esme, I strive to live with your zest for life. You always will be an inspiration. Never forget and stay safe tonight, folks.
