The Songbird Issue

Do you sing? “Um, not well… but sometimes in the shower,” I instinctively retort. Being quietly related to a few musicians from the MotorCity (hence the name, Dusty Love), I get that question more than I would like to admit. Yet, I guess genetics only go so far, because I missed that DNA train! So, in honor of the traditional Songbirds and those of us that sing to a different (and off key) tune, the June issue of skirt! is an inspirational score for which you are the conductor. Confidently, take the stage, waive your virtual baton, channel your inner aria and share your “music” on www.houston.skirt.com. Who says a show voice can’t be a theme song for a crowd…
