All of our acts are pulling out the stops as we get closer to our D-Day of Tuesday, July 14th: The Black Apple at SOBs. The rehearsals have been pretty intimate as the attendance has been family/team ONLY. Well last week, we had some peeps (pun intended) from inCOLOR come check Jade<3 out at one of her rehearsals for the show. Click HERE to read their feature on Jade<3, as well as click HERE for some candid shots taken during the rehearsal.

It’s My Heart, Cookie
Posted by Saint | Filed under Events, Music, Press
A few weeks ago our beloved Jade performed in downtown’s nightlife mecca, Santos Partyhouse for Q-Tip, Rich Medina, & Vashtie’s Friday night weekly, OPEN. This is where the thugs comingle with the hipsters, the execs with the tastemakers, and so forth. It’s a real micro assesment of where New York is currently at. Anyhow, as the performance transpired, Jade would work her magic over the entire room as she captured everyone’s heart. She isn’t misleading when she says, “It’s my heart, cookie.” Jade’s music endearingly inherits your soul, as you slowly begin to realize you’re heart is now hers…
But you don’t have to take my word for it. Visit Trace212 to read “A Jade of All Trades” for their review of Jade’s Santos performance. Maybe then you’ll believe in magic.
To hear more music from Jade, click “It’s My Heart, Cookie” to download her free EP. Also be sure to check her PERFORMING LIVE at SOBs on Tuesday July 14th.
