Daisy Sings!

When Daisy, our granddaughter, was about eight, she got up at a small party and sang "Here Comes The Sun" note perfect. It was a little amazing for those present. In short order (supported by her musical father and mother and music teachers) it became clear that Daisy had perfect pitch and related superpowers. When I bragged about Daisy to a friend who sang professionally, she said, "Every grandfather thinks his granddaughter can sing, but this kid can sing."

Today Daisy, 12,  landed her first paid gig. She wasn't looking for work, and I don't know how it happened. I'm guessing that some friends had a hand in it. But she is a treat, and I'm kind of stunned. 

Daisy Meritt will be performing three songs as part of an evening of poetry and art at the Greenhouse Studios in Mill Valley on Thursday, September 6, 2018. The program begins at 7pm. The art will be displayed by members of the Greenhouse Studios. Poets include Kathleen McClung, Cathryn Shea. Kate Peper, Kelly Alsup, and Sarah HaBa.

I will attend in secret to support antifa. Look for the dude wearing black clothes, a bicycle helmet and a mask.


Place: 229 Flamingo Road, Mill Valley
