<p>Hiya Friends!</p>
<div>
<br>
<div>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. I wanted to drop a quick line because I have a variety of <span class="il">shows</span> coming up that I thought you might be interested in and the next two are...</div>
<div></div>
<div>
This <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_65865236"><span class="aQJ">Thursday, November 30th</span></span>! </div>
<div>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 <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_65865237"><span class="aQJ">noon</span></span>-2, singing a mix of covers, originals, and holiday tunes amongst the artisans! This is one of my favorite gigs of the year and I always find really unique holiday gifts here so I'd highly recommend coming by on your lunch break! </div>
<div></div>
<div>Later that night...</div>
<div>If you're more interested in the state of politics and the world, you can catch me up in Baltimore at the Creative Alliance later that night at the illustrious Seth Kibel's CD release party for his new album Songs of Snark and Despair. I'm very proud to have been a part of this album and I'm excited to sing these songs (plus a couple of extras) live with a fantastic full band! There are a bunch of DC heavy hitters on this bill so come on out to hear David Kitchen, Jenny Langer (Black Betty), Billy Coulter, Chris Urquiaga and me on vox as well as Seth, Sean Lane, Russ Rodgers, Steve Steckler, and Wes Rodgers on a variety of instruments. If you have friends in the Baltimore area, please feel free to share this with them! Show starts at <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_65865238"><span class="aQJ">7:30</span></span> and here's a link to the Facebook event: <a href="http://www.rvrb.me/fan_reach/pt?eid=A64056_32696879_1182874_lnk1000&utm_campaign=fanreach&utm_content=1000&utm_medium=email&utm_source=fr_layout_44&rn_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fevents%2F2039068979706625%2F" target="_blank" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?hl=en&q=http://www.rvrb.me/fan_reach/pt?eid%3DA64056_32696879_1182874_lnk1000%26utm_campaign%3Dfanreach%26utm_content%3D1000%26utm_medium%3Demail%26utm_source%3Dfr_layout_44%26rn_url%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.facebook.com%252Fevents%252F2039068979706625%252F&source=gmail&ust=1511892640244000&usg=AFQjCNEYpAMOMIa1ge_HOdQvvz5iBRKXpw" data-imported="1">https://www.facebook.com/events/2039068979706625/</a>

<div>December</div>
<div>If you're busy <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_65865239"><span class="aQJ">Thursday</span></span> and dancing is more your thing anyway, I've got a December show coming up that might strike your fancy! I'll be joining Seth Kibel and friends for a night of Swing at Glen Echo on Saturday, Dec. 9th at 8 PM. This is a super fun gig (I've never sung there but I've gone for a dance lesson once before) and a dance lesson is included with your ticket so come on out, learn the basics, and stick around for the open dance floor to show off your new skills. What? You already know how to swing dance? Then come on out and show us how it's done! Here's the Facebook event: <a href="http://www.rvrb.me/fan_reach/pt?eid=A64056_32696879_1182874_lnk1001&utm_campaign=fanreach&utm_content=1001&utm_medium=email&utm_source=fr_layout_44&rn_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fevents%2F218881888652587%2F" target="_blank" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?hl=en&q=http://www.rvrb.me/fan_reach/pt?eid%3DA64056_32696879_1182874_lnk1001%26utm_campaign%3Dfanreach%26utm_content%3D1001%26utm_medium%3Demail%26utm_source%3Dfr_layout_44%26rn_url%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.facebook.com%252Fevents%252F218881888652587%252F&source=gmail&ust=1511892640244000&usg=AFQjCNHjtQDZAluZO3F_vNMQdnWujbm4FA" data-imported="1">https://www.facebook.com/events/218881888652587/</a>
</div>
<div></div>
<div>I'll also be back at the Holiday Market for one more show on Friday Dec. 15th from 2:30-4:30 so leave work early and come hang with me while you get your holiday shopping finished up!</div>
<div></div>
<div>Alright friends, thanks for reading this far! Again, happy holidays to all and I hope to see you at a Flo Show real soon!</div>
<div></div>

<p>Hey there, Friends!</p>
<div></div>
<div>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!</div>
<div></div>
<div>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 Towson; CD release parties for Seth Kibel's amazing new resistance album "Songs of Snark & Despair" at Bethesda Blues & Jazz as well as Creative Alliance of Baltimore; and I'll even be singing at Swing night at Glen Echo (dance lessons are included in the ticket price) - so there is literally something for everyone!</div>
<div></div>
<div>Please feel free to check out my calendar below to see more details about any of the events I've just mentioned. I have 2 free outdoor shows this week (one tomorrow in Crystal City and the other <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_2058372527"><span class="aQJ">Saturday</span></span> in Adams Morgan for Porch Fest) and you can buy tickets to attend the Kids Radio Show out in Towson if you're looking for something to do <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_2058372528"><span class="aQJ">Saturday Oct. 14</span></span>! I'll be performing there with Seth Kibel and Sean Lane!</div>
<div></div>

<p>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 believe it :) This is definitely the biggest competition I've ever won - it's international and I think about 2000 videos were entered across the channels so yay!! and THANK YOU to all of you OurStage members who voted - I really appreciate it - and all who helped out with the video. For anyone who might not now, we shot the video at the Capitol City Diner in DC and it was directed by Francisco Campos-Lopez. You can see more credits for people who helped out on my links page!</p>

<p>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!</p>

Hey everybody! We had a great video release party at the Rock and Roll Hotel and my sister and i joined the other bands for a shopping spree in Toys For Tots with the proceeds last week. We picked up all sorts of toys that I'm thinking should make some kids smile and it was a perfect ending to a great production. OK maybe not a complete ending cuz I'm thinking we've got some sort of making the video in the works and I'll be putting together some sort of website for ya'll to check out that and photos from behind the scenes but... for now, here's the video!

<p>Hola Amigos :)
Happy May! I'm currently entered in 2 contests, one to play the Lilith Fair, the national female fronted festival, and one to play the 9:30 Club, one of DC's biggest music venues. Both of these contests hinge on your votes and I could really use your help so... here's how you can vote:
9:30 Club - This one's easy. All you have to do is click on this link and submit your vote. You can vote 3 times for me (you can do this in one swoop by just scrolling down your vote box. if you've already voted just once you can log back in again and vote up to 3 times for me) so please please please, vote 3x for flo by clicking down below!

Lilith Fair - The voting process for Lilith is a little more complicated cuz it's run through ourstage.com. If you're already an ourstage member, then the process is a little easier. I've entered "No Dustbunnies" into the competition and it's actually doing quite well! Last I checked I was in 29th for the entire region! I don't use this website a whole lot and I don't have the fan base others who use it regularly have so... I could really use your support. For those of you who are new to Ourstage, Voting is head to head or 4 at a time - you have to listen to 15 seconds of each song and vote on/rank which you like more. I know this sounds like a lot of work but I just learned that you can choose to make me your "favorite" artist and in doing this, my song should pop up much sooner than it might otherwise! Your favorite artist is guaranteed to pop in the first 20 every time you log in so if you're looking for the most efficient way to help me out, voting head to head should bring my song up quicker :) Just an idea... That said, here are some instructions on how to vote!
If you are NEW TO OURSTAGE:
-Register for OurStage by visiting http://www.ourstage.com/register?register_as_fan=true
-you can do this via your facebook info as well
-You’ll receive an e-mail asking you to confirm your registration. Follow the link in that email to activate your account.
-Once your account is activated, use the voting link below so you can skip to the right voting place: Judge / Lilith Fair Channels / Washington DC.
To Vote:
-Log In to OurStage by visiting http://www.ourstage.com/judge?channel=250-lilith-local-talent-search-washington-dc with the Username and Password you just created.
-You’ll see three tabs: (Charts, Judge, and Standings). Click on the “Judge†tab
-As i said before, there are a couple of ways to vote. You can either compare and vote between 2 songs (Head-to-Head) or 4 songs (Sort 4) at a time. Select your preference in the Judging status box.
-When “No Dustbunnies" shows up, please give it a great ranking and leave a comment so i can thank you personally!
-You're allowed to vote as often as you like and voting will continue through May 22nd
THANK YOU!
I know this seems like a lot of work but if you can help me out, this would be a huge festival for me and I can't tell you how much I'd appreciate it. Likewise the 9:30 club is a venue I've only dreamed about playing thus far. You guys are the greatest and I know together we can do this so please help me try!
Lots of Love,
Flo</p>

<p>Thanks to all who voted in the Radio Crystal Blue Radio contest! Thanks to you all, I won my bracket and came in second overall (pretty good considering the winner had a song on the biggest loser). Muchas Gracias! Flo</p>
floanito.comtag:floanito.com,2005:Post/60271032009-02-24T19:00:00-05:002015-11-12T05:06:34-05:00Radio Show: VOTE for FLO everyday til APRIL 22!
<p>Hey Ya'll, I just found out I'm in a radio contest that starts today! This is a legit contest run by Radio Crystal Blue, an internet radio station that runs out of Brooklyn and has been spinning my tunes for a while now. I am in BRACKET 8 and each computer is allowed 1 VOTE PER DAY so if you could please go vote right now and EVERY DAY til April 23rd, I'm pretty sure I can win this thing!
To vote just go to this link:
http://pub36.bravenet.com/vote/vote.php?usernum=3071115404
scroll down to Bracket 8 and click on my Flo Anito radio button, then scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on the Submit Vote button. If you want to see how many votes everyone's collected, that should come on after you vote. Right now some chick in my bracket has got a leg up so let's catch her!
You are welcome to check out the atists in the other brackets as well and vote in them but if you're short on time, i would REALLY appreciate you just checking in on the site each day when you're at work/home/school to vote for me as many times as you can. If you have a computer at home and at work, you can vote twice a day! I promise this takes about 3 seconds.
thanks so much y Ciao,
Flo</p>
