Welcome to the fourth monthly newsletter regarding music activities. This one is even shorter than last month's—we're about to get on a big jet plane.
Today, we have information on two of the usual projects: Mala Nota and Red and The Rebels.
Mala Nota <https://malanotamusic.com/> has two shows to close out the the year.

Red and The Rebels <https://redandtherebels.com/> will be releasing a third single from the upcoming second album. The song, "Pisces Moon," deciphers the brightness of human connection. I expect to share links for this next month. In contrast with the first two releases ("Heart of Darkness" and "Texas Ruins") this album is shaping up to be a wide-ranging and deep exploration of emotional territory.
Thanks again for reading. I hope to see you at a show—live music is your best entertainment value. For 2023 I look forward to more open mic reviews, and a couple of other periodic features you may enjoy. Feel free to send questions or topics you might like to hear about from me.
Peace, Love, and Art,
Ralph
