A BIG IndieGoGo Thank You!! You can still be One with the büshe!

Hey Everyone!

Thank You so much to everyone who donated to my Can a Girl Catch a Break? IndieGoGo Campaign! I am so glad to report that we raised over $6,100 toward the making of the new album. I am very humbled given the fact that there are many things that you could have donated to, but you chose my project. Thank you so much.

I have received more than a few texts, emails, and calls from people asking if they can still donate.  Of course you can! I have added a PayPal Donation button on my web page so please feel free to donate for the first time or again if you would like.  You can also continue to spread the word.  I am still reaching toward my goal.

I will continue to keep everyone posted on the songwriting and recording process. That means more videos to come.  I'm really looking forward to the months ahead. It's already been an amazing ride. It can only get more exciting.

Thank you again! I can't wait to share the new music with you!

Peace,
Shelley

WRFB: Radio Free Brooklyn: It's July 27th and "You're Busted!!"

Hey Everyone,

So tonight's show was all about cheating.   In tonight's broadcast people were musically, shot, cussed out and politely told that two can play that game.  It might not be a easy topic in real life, but it's makes for some great songs.  Check the playlist and enjoy!

On another note, tonight was our 15th broadcast at WRFB: Radio Free Brooklyn. We've been having a wonderful time playing the music we love and interviewing the artists that matter like Tamar-kali, Greta's Bakery, I Love Monsters, Angela Johnson, Dionne Ferris and more.  It's been incredible, but we are community radio and we need the community to keep the stream alive.

We are having a fundrasier on Saturday July 31st at Brooklyn Movie Labs, home of WRFB.  We are so excited to have Lindsey Wilson, Xenia Rubinos, Giovanni Truppi, Jeff Jeudy, Dexter Taylor, Shelley Nicole (yes that's me) and a few more special guests TBA.  It's going to be an amazing night of music with a silent auction to boot. So come on out. I will leave all the information below. We can't wait to see you on Saturday night!

Peace,
Shelley

How High is Too High? & WRFB: Radio Free Brooklyn Needs Your Help!

Hey Everyone,

Tonight we took a little journey through musical contraband.  Who's shooting it, who's selling it and who's just laid back in the haze.  Enjoy the high!  Some of you have been asking about a show archive and I will be posting the archive of many of my shows very soon. Thank you for your patience and understanding. 

On another note, if you have been listening to WRFB: Radio Free Brooklyn, planning to listen or just checking out my playlists, then this message is for you. We at WRFB need your help. Like most community radio stations we can not exist without YOU.  We are very proud to say that we broadcast from Bedford-Stuyvesant in Brooklyn, but we are in jeopardy of losing our space.   For the last 14 weeks we have been playing great music that you otherwise would not hear on commercial radio and we've gotten incredible feedback. We even landed ourselves an article in the Williamsburg-Greenpoint News, but that's not enough. We Need You! So please go to www.brooklynmovielabs.com and make a donation to keep WRFB alive! Without Brooklyn Movie Labs there is no Radio Free Brooklyn. Every donation helps.  Five-dollars can turn into hundreds even thousands so please don't be shy about your donation however great or small.

We are also having a fundrasier for WRFB at Brooklyn Movie Labs on Saturday July 31st. There will be performances as well as a silent auction. As I have more details about the performers I will pass them along.  Thank you in advance for your support.
