One Month Old

We were so busy yesterday blogging about Tony Bennett and Antonia Bennett singing at the Montreux Jazz Festival, we forgot it was our one month anniversary.

To celebrate, we’ve added Spotify support and a Song of the Day section. You can download Spotify for free. And yes, the performers are paid a royalty each time you play a song.

Enjoy!

Tony Bennett Painting on Lake Geneva

Mr. Bennett’s European Tour has taken him to Switzerland. He tweeted about his painting experience:

I can’t imagine painting with such a large audience watching over my shoulder. Of course, I can’t imagine going out on stage and singing in front thousands of people either.

Here’s the finished painting:

Thanks, Mr. Bennett, for giving us this peek into your world of painting.
