I am in a band called Space Lodge. We had a gig at our Farewell San Francisco party on Saturday.
I sing, Daniel Lyon is on the keyboards, Matthew Bice on base, Drew Skillman on guitar and my husband, Tyler Hurd is on the Drums.
Dutch courage pre-show with my friend, artist Aaron Poser.

On Friday the 19th, a couple of days before the performance, Michelle gave a Tv interview to talk about Breaking My Spell. You can see footage from the photo shoot that she was doing that day with photographer Oddvar Örn Hjartarson.
She appeared on the after-news-special Kastljos on the Icelandic National Broadcasting Service Tv channel.
Here is the clip.

The performance was a success and a great point of pride for me and the Art Posse.
On Reykjavik Culture Night Michelle came in last in the Reykjavik Half Marathon, as she had planned, after six and a half hours of walking.
I will upload more photos and information soon, but for now let me just say:
YES!

Have you been itching to know more about what Breaking My Spell is all about? Here you can read a fairly long interview with me about the project, as I wax poetic about our work process and give (gasp!) information about the outfits.
Read the interview on Michelle´s blog.
Here´s what´s happening in the present moment:
As the clock ticks down to the debut of Breaking My Spell (this Saturday at 8:40 no less) things are becoming more hectic. I know the heat is rising at the Art Posse headquarters what with some unforeseen setbacks. To top it off, I have been laying in bed since Saturday with a cold and fever dreams.
But I am confident that all will go well nevertheless, because on other fronts, the art gods have been smiling down upon us.
Plus we rock.
Michelle Morby left for Iceland on Sunday with half of the art posse; Peter Max Lawrence and Kirk Wilder, to work on Breaking My spell. Now they’re there: Michelle training, Peter Max documenting and Kirk keeping it all together. Plus they have to do about a hundred other things. Jenalee Harmon, our style and makeup guru, and I will be arriving soon. In fact, I will be there on Tuesday!
The outfits are ready and soon Michelle will do a photo shoot with very talented Oddvar Örn Hjartarson.
Here are some photos of the art posse:
