I am expecting 2012 to be the start of a cultural milieu. You should expect that too. We should expect a lot.
Join me and my amazing boys this following Saturday, 14th of Jan at the beloved old NUBLU in NYC for yet another set, this time with a new electro nearly pop song never played live before. This one is going to be a sweet murderer.
Last evening was spent frolicking around with my love Manuel Greco. Here are some of the results.
Um yea, I want the Gareth Pugh gimp suit.
My shining ruthless meteor. My instasmile.

My friend and super talented photographer Alexander Berg sweetly so very sweetly shot a series of pictures of our last show at The Cameo Gallery this past Thursday. Needless to say, they are beautiful, hard to imagine how he managed this quality with the all present darkness. Check out his amazing work here. Enough can’t be said for the space itself of course with the jelly fish like paper sculpture hanging over our heads and the bouncing red and green laser lights, I loved me some of that! A video for one of the tracks performed coming soon! Teddy, Aaron, Euni, Manuel, you guys were unbelievable, yeah band!!
Now really, its time for some heat, we can all agree, and for that black snow to melt. Spring is not too long!
Love, V.
Its been nearly a month since I got back from our mini tour in Italy, it was a superb time and such an amazing experience. My first time in front of five thousand people!! The festival was really well organized, the sound system and the setting were incredible! While we prepared for the gigs, we rented this gorgeous little hut in the middle of nowhere in Sicily, with only one other house in view across the valley, across many cacti, a castaway mattress on the way and other creepy-crawlies I had no interest in getting acquainted with. We spent all our time playing music and rehearsing all through the day, Serena cooked for all of us and Ela brewed one cocktail after another. Below are a few pictures from the festivals and the show in Rome, and a couple of random ones of the house.
I hope you’re all having a great lovely day, its cold here in New York! Oh I’m wrecking myself with Hipstamatic, an iphone app that makes digital pictures look wickedly analog, check it out!

Hello! Is anybody here? If nobody is yet, I’d really like you to be, so this is an official invitation and my first post… where I blah.. and would love for you to do the same.
Of interest is, how many people would find a solo show compelling.. I’m planning a series of these with a wurlitzer, a mini moog, a toy piano and a drum machine as my accompaniments. Its challenging but is so doable and for sure I’d be excited about shows like these, excellent versions of these, of course… so for your opinion?
KISSES
Vandana
