“chotto” good news

“chotto” good news = “a little” good news

I’ve been singing at NB Lounge about twice a month
(almost bi-weekly, not quite) since April.
I am very blessed with wonderful pianists (thank you, Tadataka-san & Dodo-san),
great staff, great supporters of jazz.

As soon as I have started to sing at NB,
occasionally I was asked why it’s not every Monday.
I thought about it in each time someone asked:
what would be the pros and cons on “not” doing in weekly basis.
There were bunch of small reasons and concerns that I could list up,
but in short, I wasn’t be able to give a clear answer for that.

When opportunity knocks, we all know that
we shouldn’t give too much time to THINK because it will be gone pretty fast
(of course, we should think and judge in some point!)
After I had a little conversation with the staff at NB,
I gave myself a time to think seeking opinion to my trusted partner on this gig.
Then, I decided to push one step further…

I will be at NB Lounge on every Monday from the month of August!

Now, you don’t need to think much of when I am singing at NB.
All you need to remember is:
Mamiko will be at NB on Mondays of every week.
Easy? I think so.

So… this was my “chotto” good news to share with you today.

ちょっと良いニュースを、と言っても大袈裟では決してないんですが。

4月から続いている、毎月二度のMonday Jazz at NB Lounge、
この8月から毎週月曜になることが決まりました。

色々、考えることはありましたが、
せっかくお出で、と言われたのですから、
チャレンジしてみようかしら?と。

毎月曜、ってなったほうが
覚えやすいですか?
そうでもないですか?(笑)

皆が、ふっと立ち寄れて、
楽しい時間、
リラックスできる時間を過ごせたら
とっても嬉しいですし、
ここでお友達が増えたり、
誰かが恋に落ちたり(!)、
そんな風景の一部に自分らの音楽が含まれていたら、
益々素敵だなー♪なんて、勝手に思っている次第(笑)。

晴れの日も、
曇りの日も、
雨の日も、
ココロを込めて歌います。
ちょっと、”歌うたいのバラッド”なココロモチ。
でも、ひとりの人に歌うのではなくて、
ワタシの歌を聞いてくださる皆様に、
ですけれども。

これからも応援、よろしくお願いたします。
