Earlier this week, I had the privilege of attending the third
Monaco Pride event in the Principality. Despite being relatively young
compared to other Pride gatherings, Monaco Pride grows stronger each
year, drawing an international and diverse crowd united in championing
LGBTQI+ equality rights.
Monaco Pride was initiated
in 2022 through a collaboration between Barclays Monaco, Fight Aids
Monaco, and the former Stars’n’Bars. Their goal was to educate Monaco’s
decision-makers about LGBTQI+ rights and address the outdated laws that
cause significant hardships for many families living and working in
Monaco.
This year, on June 20th, Camille Gottlieb, Princess Stephanie’s youngest
daughter, joined over 150 participants at Monaco’s third Pride event.
The event was co-organized by Barclays Bank and the local Fight Aids
association, and held at the newly opened Marius restaurant on the Quai
des Artistes.
Speakers included Monserrat Marchetti, Team Leader of Barclays Private Bank Monaco, Hervé Aeschbach, Coordinator at Fight Aids Monaco Association, and Annette Anderson, former manager of Stars’n’Bars.
Barclays has long been a global leader in promoting workplace
diversity and inclusion. According to Marchetti, “Making everyone feel
comfortable in their work is at the heart of our culture. We foster this
environment through various activities and initiatives, creating
networks that allow colleagues to build connections.
Our
ongoing relationship with PRIDE is just one of many ways we demonstrate
our commitment to the LGBTQI+ community.” As in previous years, the
façade of the Monaco bank will be illuminated in rainbow colors
throughout June in observance of Pride Month.
Hervé Aeschbach reported that since the last Monaco Pride,
LGBTQI+ residents have been meeting regularly to discuss educating
decision-makers about civil inequalities in Monaco. These inequalities
create severe financial difficulties for many, including the lack of
spousal rights for widows or widowers in same-sex marriages recognized
in other countries and the denial of medical benefits for children in
same-sex families.
Monaco is consistently rated
among the worst countries in Europe regarding LGBTQI+ civil rights.
Aeschbach emphasized that Princess Stephanie, President of the Fight
Aids Association, denounces all discrimination and defends the right to
equality for all Monaco citizens and residents.
Annette Anderson thanked the courageous members of the
Conseil-National and the High Commissioner for Protection of Rights for
their efforts in fighting for equal rights for the Rainbow Community.
However, she stressed, “It is OUR responsibility to fight for OUR
rights.” She applauded the creation of the new Mon Arc En Ciel Association,
which aims to educate decision-makers about LGBTQI+ rights and advocate
for changing the outdated laws that burden many families in Monaco.
This year’s Monaco Pride highlighted the urgency of bringing even basic
LGBTQI+ equality rights to the Principality. Despite the serious
conversations, there was a hopeful and positive spirit among the group,
with live music, dancing, laughter, and drinks, as participants enjoyed
the early evening overlooking Port Hercules in Monaco.
It has been said that estimates indicate there are tens of
thousands of English-speaking and even more so, bilingual expatriates
living in the region, particularly in cities like Nice, a cultural hub
in the French Riviera.
So when I noticed online a
new bookshop and café aptly called, “Read The Room” having recently
opened in Nice, I had to check it out. I was delighted to meet the
owners, Danaé and Andrea at their establishment, located near Place
Garibaldi at 3 rue Papon.
Can you tell us a bit about yourselves and what inspired you to open an English bookshop and café in Nice?
My
mom and I had already been living in the South of France for just over 2
years. We were both talking one day about how fun it would be to open
our own business together and seeing as we are both avid readers with
very little purchasing options in the area, we decided to do it
ourselves! It literally happened overnight. It’s easy to be inspired in
Nice.
What is the overall vision and mission for your bookshop and café?
We
have a very clear vision of being a culture hotspot for English and
anglophone expats and tourists. We really want to make our space a place
where book lovers can connect over their love of literature and a good
cup of coffee (and a delicious slice of cake too!). A big part of our
mission is to open our doors to cultural events as well so that the
community can stay connected.
How did you come up with the concept for combining a bookshop with a café?
This
is a very popular concept overseas especially in the UK, US and South
Africa where my mom is from. We wanted to give the option to people to
be able to sit and enjoy their book outside of their usual comfort zone.
The margins on buying and selling books is also so small, so offering
the coffee side (with our menu) helps us stay afloat and enables us to
invest in more and diverse book stock.
What kind of atmosphere are you aiming to create for your customers?
In
my personal life, I am very passionate about art, books, vintage,
interior design and beautiful, aesthetic things that make you feel good.
My own apartment feels like a fun museum and that’s the energy we
wanted to convey for our customers. A space where you walk in and feel
at home immediately. A place where you feel relaxed enough to sit by
yourself and enjoy a book, and feel inspired when you look up. My mom
and I have a lot of pride in our space and I think it is easily
noticeable.
What types of books will you be focusing on in your inventory? I noticed you have an LGBTQ section.
Being
inclusive and diverse in our book stock is a top goal and priority for
us here at Read The Room. Being two strong women who have always been
passionate about equality and human rights, we want our stock to reflect
that. Our LGBQT selection is not just available for Pride Month, and we
restock it weekly. We place quite a lot of importance in women’s
rights, women authors and mental health advocacy books. We are also big
on giving a platform and help amplify the voices of marginalized authors
who are often silenced or ignored. These are all topics we care deeply
about personally and we wanted to incorporate that professionally.
We
also always make sure to check out the latest and bestsellers lists,
the women’s literature prize winners and runner ups, TikTok’s booktok
community favorites and our selected few Instagram book influencers to
guide us and keep us up to date with what the public is reading.
We
also don’t forget our children’s books and kiddies’ corner. They are
also a very big priority for us as we believe reading is one of the most
important aspects of a child’s life to benefit their futures. Keeping
the stock fresh, educational but also interactive and fun seems to be
working wonders so far!
Are there any specific genres or authors you are particularly excited to feature?
Like
we mentioned above, we are very big on amplifying the voices of women
and marginalized authors and it will always be a priority to seek them
out. We are also very excited to feature more “alternative” books in our
photography and design selection from Mack Books. We really do love our
coffee table books from Assouline and the beautiful photographs they
hold. At the moment, we are very focused on featuring Middle-Eastern
literature from Arabic and muslim authors for all ages to enjoy and
learn from.
Can you describe the kind of food and drinks you will be serving in the café?
We
have a small menu made up of small, healthy, and fresh meals that run
all day. We have breakfast options like chia seed pudding and granola
bowls to nice lunch dishes like a delicious caesar salad or salmon
trout and avocado stuffed croissant. Our avocado toast is definitely a
fan favorite! We also bake fresh croissants every morning and all our
pastries are homemade. We have the usual range of drinks, teas and
coffees and offer matcha specials (we’ve been told they’re the best) and
fresh pressed OJ everyday!
How do you plan to engage with the local community and build a loyal customer base?
We are mainly using Instagram and Facebook as
our means of staying connected with our local community but we are also
starting to host more events and do collaborations with people. We also
have our loyalty card that customers receive after their first book
purchase. We have already had two filled out so they are popular! We
also have a community pinboard at the entrance of our store where
customers and tourists alike can pin up information and events to
advertise and find each other for a variety of activities and offers,
most of which are in English.
Will you be hosting any special events or activities, such as book readings, author signings, or book clubs?
We
have already hosted a book swap event which went brilliantly, people
loved the idea of being able to drop books off and swap out second hand
books to take home. We also have Taste Taste Thursdays, which consists
of cooking a meal from a new cookbook we choose in the store every
Thursday. We have a book signing coming up in July and another in
August. We are also introducing the kiddies reading corner on
Wednesdays: we will choose a book to read for 30 minutes every Wednesday
in the kid’s corner. Every book will have a lesson or activity.
What have been some of the biggest challenges you've faced in
setting up the bookshop and café? Especially since it seems to be a
focus towards the English speaking community in France. Did you feel
this is something the expat community needs and was asking for?
The
English community was definitely waiting for this. The main feedback we
received was that this was really needed. There wasn’t a library in a
30 minute vicinity from Nice where you could find a nice, extended
selection of English books covering a variety of genres, especially for
children. Read The Room has quickly become a spot for locals to come and
have a coffee, enjoy a chat, have a nice salad and buy or order a new
book for themselves or a friend.
The biggest challenge we faced
was all the red tape that comes with French bureaucracy and admin. Even
when you are French, the French are difficult, haha. But we were lucky
in most aspects.
Do you have any personal favorite books or authors that have influenced your decision to open this shop?
This is a very difficult question to answer.
We
have too many favorite books and authors but one that really stuck with
me recently is ‘I’m Glad My Mom Died’ by Jenette McCurdy. I was totally
awestruck by her courage and bravery. It’s crazy to look back and think
I was 12 years old watching her on TV while she was going through hell
on earth and hiding it so well. My mom recently read ‘A Woman is No
Man’, by Etaf Rum, an American Palestinian author. We are always and
what we read is so diverse that I wouldn’t say one particular book is
what inspired the book shop. All of the stories we have ever read are
part of our own.
What do you hope customers will take away from their experience at your bookshop and café?
A book(s), a good word to a friend or neighbor and a revisit.
Why did you choose Nice as the location for your business?
It’s
the middle ground of everything. It’s in between Monaco and Cannes and
with the airport being in Nice, a lot of our clientele is around this
area because of tourists and expats.
What are your future plans for the bookshop and café?
We
already want to find a bigger space to have more bookshelves filled
with books! We want to add a bigger seating area for reading and eating,
as well as sell more art and photography when the opportunity arises to
expand. We will soon be getting our terrace confirmed, so we will be
adding 4 more tables outside (with shelter of course!) so more people
will be able to enjoy our space.
Is there anything else you would like our readers to know about your new bookshop and café?
Dogs
are welcome and definitely get a puppacino on the house. We take
special orders every week and place them on Sundays, which in turn
arrive no later than the next Thursday if there are no public holidays
etc. We are open to suggestions and book recommendations and anyone is
welcome and free to email us should they want to use our space for an
event.
How can people stay updated on your events and new arrivals?
Follow us on Instagram
and make sure to turn the post notifications on so you can stay up to
date with our newest arrivals, our business updates and events!
As the saying goes, reading is fundamental. Be sure to visit Read The Room the next time you are in Nice.
If you're seeking a truly wonderful experience in the
Principality of Monaco, we recommend spending part of an evening
watching a movie under the stars at the Monaco Open Air Cinema.
We
first wrote about this unique venue a decade ago, but it’s always worth
revisiting as it is quite the experience. And as of June 15, it reopens
to the public for the height of the summer season.
Situated next
to the architecturally stunning Oceanography Museum and just a few
minutes' walk from the Prince’s Palace, the Monaco Open Air Cinema
offers a picturesque setting by the Mediterranean Sea. Throughout the
season, you can enjoy a variety of movies, from new releases to vintage
classics.
Seating options cater to different comfort levels and budgets, ranging
from standard outdoor chairs to more lounge-like areas. All seating is
on a first-come, first-served basis to ensure fairness. Refreshments are
available for purchase as well.
The cinema opens at 8:45 pm, with the evening's events starting at 9:30
pm and the movie commencing at 10:00 pm. It's advisable to arrive early,
as tickets cannot be purchased online. This traditional approach to
cinema-going adds to the charm and memorability of the experience.
A lesser-known fact is that the fortress wall behind the screen is
part of the Monaco prison, though there are few windows in the area near
the top of the wall.
For a memorable movie-watching experience, spend an evening at the Monaco Open Air Cinema.
If sailing and yacht shows are your passion, you’ve definitely come to the right part of France.
From
yacht shows to regattas and races across the Mediterranean Sea, the
sailing calendar is packed with exciting events over the next few months
in the south of France and Monaco.
At the end of June, the Riviera will host a unique regatta called Les Voiles de l’Espoir, an event that occurs only once every two years.
This
special regatta aims to involve children in remission from cancer and
leukemia in the sport, with professional crews guiding them out on the
waves.
The 2024 edition will take place from June 15th to June 22nd, with a scheduled stop in Monaco on June 19th.
In the height of summer, the Palermo-Monte Carlo regatta will
set sail from the Gulf of Mondello on August 20th, making its way to the
Principality via Porto Cervo. The winner's ceremony is scheduled in
Monaco for August 25th. Registrations are still open; for information on
how to participate and more details, please visit the event's website.
Later in the season, the 46th Cannes Royal Regattas
will take place from September 23rd to 28th. This prestigious event has
become one of the world’s premier classic sailing competitions, known
for its professional participants and diverse range of categories.
Sailors from around the globe, from novices to seasoned professionals,
aspire to attend or compete in this regatta.
Down the coast, the annual Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez
will be held from September 28th to October 6th. First organized in
1999 by the Société Nautique de Saint-Tropez, this event showcases a
stunning mix of classic boats, some over a century old, and cutting-edge
modern yachts. Approximately 250 vessels are expected to participate
this year.
As part of a local tradition that attracts an international
audience, there will be two major yacht shows this Autumn.
First is the Cannes Yacht Show, running from September 10th to 15th, featuring up to 700 yachts.
And of course, the Monaco Yacht Show.
This annual event in Port Hercule is scheduled for September 25th to
28th. MYS has established itself as one of the world's premier showcases
of innovation and luxury craft, drawing significant international
attention.
On June 23, 2024, the vibrant city of Nice will once again host the
Pink Parade, a dynamic and colorful celebration dedicated to promoting
LGBTQ+ rights, diversity, and inclusion. This annual event, set against
the stunning backdrop of the French Riviera, draws thousands of
participants and spectators from across the globe, uniting in a powerful
demonstration of solidarity and pride.
A History of Advocacy and Celebration
The
Pink Parade has its roots in the early 2000s, emerging as a grassroots
initiative to raise awareness about LGBTQ+ issues in the region. Over
the years, it has grown into one of the most significant Pride events in
southern France, symbolizing both the progress made and the ongoing
fight for equality.
Highlights of the 2024 Pink Parade
This
year's Pink Parade promises to be a spectacular affair, featuring a
range of activities designed to engage, educate, and entertain. The
festivities will kick off with a colorful parade through the heart of
Nice, where participants dressed in an array of costumes and waving
rainbow flags will march in a joyful procession.
This
year the parade route will start at the Port of Nice at “Place Île de
Beauté” close to 4 pm and wind through some of Nice's most iconic
streets such as around the port towards and down part of the famous
Promenade des Anglais, offering a feast for the eyes and an opportunity
for onlookers to join in the celebrations.
After the
parade, everyone is welcome to gather at the open air, Théâtre de
Verdure, situated between Place Masséna and the Promenade des Anglais
for a wide range of free entertainment featuring renowned DJs and
performers, the party will provide a space for revelers to dance the
night away in a safe environment. And of course, the local nightclubs,
bars, and restaurants will be extending that welcome for their own Pride
celebratory events.
The Significance of the Pink Parade
The Pink
Parade is more than just a festive event; it is a powerful statement of
visibility and resilience. For many participants, it represents a rare
opportunity to express their true selves openly and without fear. The
event also serves as a reminder of the challenges that the LGBTQ+
community continues to face, both in France and around the world.
Community and Support
The
success of the Pink Parade is a testament to the strength and
solidarity of the LGBTQ+ community in Nice and the broader region. It is
supported by numerous local organizations, volunteers, and sponsors,
all of whom play a crucial role in making the event a reality. The
inclusive nature of the parade invites everyone—regardless of their
sexual orientation or gender identity—to join in the celebration and
stand in support of equality and human rights.
Looking Forward
As
the Pink Parade in Nice prepares to take to the streets on June 23, the
excitement and anticipation are palpable. This year’s event promises to
be a memorable occasion, filled with joy, pride, and a shared
commitment to a future where everyone can live freely and authentically.
Whether
you’re a local resident, a visitor, or a member of the global LGBTQ+
community, the Pink Parade offers an inspiring and uplifting experience
that underscores the importance of love, acceptance, and unity. Join the
parade, celebrate diversity, and be part of this extraordinary movement
towards a more inclusive world.
This may be unusual, considering Gay French Riviera is supposed to be
about everything LGBTQ related in the Cote d’Azur, but there is a couple
of unexpected connections. Without question though, the 80s group,
Vicious Pink has always been a hot favorite in the gay nightclub scene. As many a longtime fan of the 80s band, Vicious Pink. One
evening, playing around on one of my Instagram accounts, I took a clip
from a vintage fashion show in Paris and paired it with their song, “I
confess”.
Not long after I posted it with the
hashtag #viciouspink, the singer Josephine Warden (Jose) of Vicious Pink
noticed it. I was thrilled that she simply liked the post.
Over
time, our online friendship grew, and I eventually discovered that a
new Vicious Pink vinyl, aptly named "Unexpected," would be released in a
limited edition by Minimal Wave Records on May 21, 2024.
From
there, we connected, and I was fortunate enough to interview both Brian
Moss and Jose Warden of Vicious Pink. We discussed their impact on the
nightclub scene in the 80s, particularly within the LGBTQ community, as
well as their future plans for music.
To jump right in, do you realize just how big of an impact
your music has had in the gay community in the 80s and continues on to
this day?
Jose: That is such a compliment, the music is
always so much better in gay clubs! We started to realize very quickly
that the gay crowd was behind us and as we started to play live shows
and meet our audience, we knew that a lot of our support came from the
gay community. I have always been a fervent supporter of LGBTQ rights
and stand solidly at their side.
Your music stands out
from the other high energy sounds back then. To friends and myself, it
was also Jose’s vocals that helped make what was already
forward-thinking music, into something that had a sense of
sophistication and erotism. And people took notice, especially in the
club scene. Is this something you recognized when first getting out
there as well?
Jose: We knew we were different, and we
knew that we wouldn’t appeal to everyone, but that was irrelevant,
because we appealed to people like us. We were both great clubbers
ourselves, so we were right in the midst of it. Good times.
To provide some history to readers. How did the two of you get together musically?
Brian:
We met at an alternative night in Leeds 1979 at a pub called The
Adelphi, where I was the DJ. We decided to start the band initially for a
bit of fun. As we developed, we aimed for success in the clubs and
alternative bars with DJ friendly mixes for night clubs, rather than
radio friendly commercial hits. There was no internet then, the DJ’s and
the night clubs were like the internet of the day, they got your sound
out there.
Can you share the story behind the name "Vicious Pink"?
Jose:
Me, Brian and Dave wrote some our favorite words down on pieces of
paper, turned them upside down and shuffled them about. Then we each
choose one of the pieces of paper. On my piece of paper, the word was
Vicious, Dave's was Pink and Brian’s was Phenomena. We rearranged them
on the floor, to read, ‘Vicious Pink Phenomena’.
And you both also provided backing vocals for Soft Cell at one point? How did that come together?
Jose:
One night, Brian and I had gone to a bar in the center of Leeds called
Amnesia, to watch my friend, the fabulous performance artist Marc
Almond, perform with his new band, Soft Cell, which he had formed with
Dave.
I think Anni Hogan was the DJ that night,
which was pretty cool as there weren’t many female DJs at the time.
About five minutes before Soft Cell were due on- stage Marc asked if we
would do some backing vocals for him. “Tonight?”’
I
asked, “I don’t know any of the lyrics?” Unperturbed, Marc rushed to
the bar, grabbed a pen and a white serviette on which he wrote in big,
black, capital letters ‘MISERY, COMPLAINTS, SELF PITY, INJUSTICE. CHIPS
ON MY SHOULDER, CHIPS ON MY SHOULDER.’
“Just follow me”, he said.
And
we did, all the way to New York, where three months later, in Media
Sound Studios, Manhattan, I held onto the same serviette as we recorded,
‘Chips on My Shoulder’ and other songs for ‘Non- Stop Erotic Cabaret,’
Soft Cells debut album.
That’s amazing! What is your typical songwriting process like? Do you start with lyrics or music?
Brian: Usually, music first.
How do you approach production and the use of technology in your music?
Brian:
When we started out there were no Music Technology courses, no Midi, it
all had to be learned from scratch. That was probably a bonus in some
ways, because I had to experiment with all the new equipment, so
sometimes there would be a happy accident!
One example: I could
sync my Roland BassLine TB303 to the Roland TR606 Drum Machine, via a
5-Pin Din lead, which looks like a Midi lead, but is wired differently. I
could also trigger the Arpeggiator on my Roland Juno 60 by connecting a
quarter inch jack lead from the TR606 to the Arpeggiator Clock-In on
the Juno 60. Then program, for example a tom pattern in the desired
rhythm, to send the pulse to trigger the Juno 60, then all 3 were in
tempo sync.
This was used for ‘Fetish’, 8:15 To Nowhere and
other songs. I also used this for live shows, so no need for tape
backing tracks when in use.
I know you played in
New York live at the Ritz in 1984. The 80s were such an individualistic
and artistic time, especially in New York and London. Who and what were
your influences then?
Brian: I loved Kraftwerk, YMO, DAF,
Devo, Bowie, John Foxx and many more, but we always wanted to have our
own sound, so we didn’t let the love of other artists creep into our
music, plus the world already had those great artists.
Do you have any memorable stories from your various live performances?
Jose:
We always took a 1960’s mannequin, who we called Lucy, to all our shows
as a stage prop. I would dress her up in my clothing. We played The
Crocs Club (later, Pink Toothbrush) in Rayleigh, Essex one night, and I
dressed Lucy in a tiny black leather miniskirt and black lace top that I
had worn the night before at a show in London. After the show, we said
‘hello’ to some people and had a few drinks as usual. When it came to do
the loadout of our gear, we found Lucy, still onstage, naked, someone
had actually stripped her and stolen my clothes!
How did it feel to achieve success in the 80s music scene?
Brian:
We were amazed, because initially we really started Vicious Pink more
as a project and mainly for fun. It's a strange feeling at first, just
to see people dancing in clubs to our music. I remember going to Area in
Manhattan one night and the dance floor was rammed as people danced to,
‘Cccan’t You See’.
What inspired your hit singles like "Cccan't You See" and "Fetish"?
Jose:
Youth, lust, passion, sex, desire. We had just reached that age when
these things are so much more important than anything else.
Do you realize just how big of a contribution you have made to the electronic music scene?
Brian: We realize it more now due to the feedback we get online and the global audience we can reach through the Internet.
Which of your songs are you most proud of, and why?
Brian: That’s a difficult one, it’s like asking which of the children you like best!
Jose:
I’m proud of all of them but my favorite is, ‘Ask Me To Stay’. There is
something about it that makes me want to sing along with it when I hear
it.
For the audience reading this, what did you
both do after you stopped recording in the 80s? People continued to love
and desire your music, wanting more. Did it make you want to rethink
things in how you produce music for the future?
Brian:
I continued recording, writing and producing with Drug Free America
into the late 90’s. Then I worked/collaborated with other bands and I
didn’t stop writing music. 2003 - 2018 I worked touring with different
bands around the UK and Europe doing TM, merch, driving and lots of
other on-tour duties. Some of the bands: Bullet For My Valentine, Bring
Me The Horizon, It Dies Today and many more and with different styles of
music!
A few years ago people were quite excited and pleasantly
surprised to see the elusive Jose back in view. It was like a firestorm
on the internet about it all. What seemed to be the reasons to get back
into the music industry, Jose? The fans are so excited you are back!
Jose:
I stopped writing and performing completely, although I kept in touch
with what was happening in the music world as I married a music lawyer,
and a lot of friends were still in the business. I was only persuaded to
come back to it by the wonderful Veronica Vasicka, founder of Minimal
Wave records just before ‘West View’, the album she released two years
ago.
How has the music industry changed since you first started, and how have you adapted to those changes?
Brian:
Less CD sales, vinyl almost dying then making a comeback and now
downloads, and streaming added to the mix. Yes, we’ve adapted very well
to the internet age, it would have been nice to have it back when we
started.
Your new LP, ‘Unexpected’, which I absolutely
love, offers 10 tracks being released this week. How did you choose the
songs for the LP?
Brian: I went through lots of reel to
reel tapes and cassettes of our work, then together with the help of my
DJ friends Jase Matthaus and Dee Shaw, did the digital rips at Jase’s
studio. I then sent copies to Jose and between us we chose the 10
tracks.
My favorites are, So You Want to Love Me?, South Side, Not
Your Kind of Girl, Night Drive. Each of the songs on the LP are unique
and seem to display your musical experiences from over the years. Much
of it I can see being played not only in the nightclubs but also as
background in movies.
Brian: I can see that happening too. I hope so.
Are there any songs that stand out to you or are more personal on ‘Unexpected’ that you love?
Jose:
It’s perpendicular for me because it takes me right back to the start
of it all. It reminds me of our very early days when Brian, Dave and I
used to just experiment with sounds and beats, before we even thought
about introducing vocals.
What are the plans for Vicious Pink now?
Brian:
New Vicious Pink remixes by Paul Dakeyne (Tin Man ‘18 Strings’ fame) to
be released. New Vicious Pink songs in the pipeline and maybe some live
shows.
What legacy do you hope Vicious Pink will leave in the music world?
Brian:
I would like more people to discover us around our beautiful planet and
that they continue dancing to and enjoying our music.
Jose: Dance!
In
contact with Jose for the interview, she learned that I live in the
French Riviera and mentioned she sometimes goes on holiday in the
region. So I’m excited to hopefully meet up with her at some point this
summer.
