Hiya Friends!

It's almost December and I am loving this Fall-like weather we're having in Washington, DC! I hope you all had a lovely Thanksgiving.

This Thursday, November 30th!  For those of you ready to start celebrating the holidays with some festive music and holiday shopping, I'll be at the Downtown Holiday Market from noon-2, singing a mix of covers… Read more

Hey there, Friends!

Happy Fall! October has arrived and with it, my favorite weather! I hope you're enjoying some cool breezes and orange leaves wherever you may be! Between my performance at the Lincoln Theatre for Labor Day and my first ever signed (ASL) show at Takoma Park Folk Festival, my Fall has started off with a bang! I just wanted to send out a quick email to let you know what's on the horizon! Starting tomorrow, there are outdoor shows on porches and arts markets; a Kids Radio Program out in… Read more

Happy Easter Everyone!!! I just finished playing a show at the ever so lovely National Cherry Blossom Festival. The cherry trees were at peak bloom and the crowd was fantastic. Now I'm gearing up for my debut show at the Barns of Wolf Trap!!! I'll be playing on Saturday April 9th as part of a Bandhouse Gigs Tribute to Randy Newman and I could not be more excited!!! Tickets are selling fast so if you want to come celebrate with me, make sure to grab your ticket soon! Hope to see you there, Flo 

Hey Guys! Before the print edition disappears, I just wanted to give a shout out to Monica Boland at On Tap Magazine for doing a really sweet feature on my music in the April edition! It's a pretty popular magazine in DC so I am honored to have a page in it! If you can find a print edition at your local bar/restaurant/club, you can check out the online version here: http://www.ontaponline.com/2013/04/01/flo-anito-pop-with-a-twist-of-jazz/ Much thanks also to Jose Burgos for taking the picture!

Yay!!!!! This is super exciting! OurStage is a bit like Pandora for indie musicians but it's also cool in that there's this competitive aspect of the site where you can enter 3 songs/videos in different channels a month. Once you've entered a channel competition, listeners get to judge songs head to head or 4 at a time and vote for their favorites! I entered Uh Oh in the Pop Video Channel and it did well enough to qualify for the overall Video Finals. From there it went on to actually WIN!!!! I still can't…

I emailed Dave Mann the other day to thank him for organizing the Sweet Tea Fest and he gave me some pretty cool news. The Washington Post Express had chosen the Sweet Tea Fest as the Top Stop for the weekend. The spot was a really nice shout-out and they stuck a picture of me in for good measure :) I can't seem to link to the print edition but you can read what the article said by clicking on the press icon. Weehaw!

Back in April, I was voted the Artist of the Month for DC/Baltimore on Deli Magazine. They sent me a follow up interview which was just posted. I hope you can check it out! Thanks, Flo http://washington.thedelimagazine.com/5856/interview-dc-pops-flo-anito
