December 11, 2014

I am looking out the blurry rain tinted hinted windows as the dark skies are set to deliver an intense storm to the Bay Area but inside the warmth of my office, it is nothing but sunshine. I am listening to the new song from Genevieve (formerly of Company of Thieves) and it is absolutely addictive! The catchy alternative pop style song showcases the vocal talent of Genevieve in a fun and bubbly way. The passion she brings to her music reminds me of the first time I heard Alanis Morrisette. There is just this bright charismatic nature that Genevieve has and it is captivating.  When you listen to Colors it is as if you have put on your rose colored glasses and the world just seems brighter and vibrant.
