Liquid Art Designs

Written by Sande Caplin on . Posted in Art.

Liquid Art Designs is a fascinating voyage led by the artist, James Unger.   His  underwater view of marine life and his fresh interpretation and techniques are attracting the attention of many.  What James does with an airbrush and the style he has perfected, bring color, light, and marine life onto a canvas that is a riot of bright hues and the shades of blue of the surrounding Gulf and bay waters.   The reality of hammer head sharks, turtles, and a myriad of other sea creatures are presented in a lovely, real way, as well as being delightfully surreal.  It gives the viewer a lot to consider and a bird’s-eye-view of some breathtaking, one-of-a-kind representations found in  our Florida waters.

Twinkle, Thank you!

Written by Sande Caplin on . Posted in Events.

I am one of the few who have not witnessed a concert from start to finish by Sarasota / Bradenton’s own, “Twinkle.”  Yesterday at the Cortez Stone Crab Festival I got the chance and it was a show that I won’t soon forget.  The festival itself is quite an experience with locals and tourists hanging […]

A Grand Day!

Written by Sande Caplin on . Posted in Blog.

I am getting ready to celebrate one of my favorite holidays: Grandparents Day! Yes, it really is a holiday. In fact, President Jimmy Carter signed it into law in 1978. Although it is called Grandparents Day, the originator Marian McQuade wanted to designate a day for families to visit their elderly relatives. Therefore, I think […]

Doing The Wave

Written by Sande Caplin on . Posted in Music.

I did the Wave last night! No, not standing and raising my arms at a sporting event. I did a show along with guitar genius Jami Gee, drummer Eddie James Liashek, and Scott Stevenson on bass at The Wave Grill at Ramada Venice Resort Hotel. Everything about last night was extraordinary. Therefore, I have to share it with all of you.  First of all, the hotel itself is a work of art right down to the bathroom and very elegant. When you walk in the front door you immediately feel like you have stepped into a tropical resort.

Steve Arvey, Palladium Debut

Written by Sande Caplin on . Posted in Music.

Steve Arvey is a household name in many parts of the country and overseas, as well.  Steve Arvey isn’t your everyday musician.  He’s a bit like an eccentric genius, and you can see the “smoke” coming out of his ears when he’s deep in thought.  He’s like the Albert Einstein of the music scene all over Florida, and  in his home town of Chicago, and Steve performs seven days a week, almost all the time.  His fingers are in an array of pies every day.  He’s a man with a big heart, and lends his talents to fundraising for so many causes.  When you need someone to really do the job, rally folks together, and raise money, Steve is incredible.

Savannah Brady….My First Assignment!

Written by Sande Caplin on . Posted in Music.

When I was first approached about contributing some articles to The Sarasota Post about my experiences as a young musician in Sarasota I thought, cool!  Then, I quickly realized I would actually have to write which is not my idea of fun unless it’s song lyrics. After all, I do plenty of writing for school so I couldn’t think of any reason I would agree to waste my free time writing.   My mind was completely changed after watching Lauren Mitchell perform.

Kettle of Fish- “Nothin’ but Good Vibes”

Written by Sande Caplin on . Posted in Music.

I hear I missed a magic moment at the Myakka Blues Festival.  Kettle of Fish were up on the stage and Dana Lawrence’s 5 year old daughter Cassidy strolled on up, reached for her father’s hand, kissed it and touched his hand to her face.  It brought the house down!  If you ever think rockers are any different than anyone else, you’re wrong.  They bleed, cry and play just like the rest of us.

On The Road with the Lauren Mitchell Band!

Written by Sande Caplin on . Posted in Blog.

Lauren Mitchell sent this to the Sarasotapost.com  very late last night.  Thank you, Lauren and congratulations on a great tour. 

Hello from the road, Believers! I thought I’d take a minute to let you all know about some of our adventures while we’ve been on tour. North Carolina was a great start to the trip, jamming with Mel Melton at Papa Mojo’s Roadhouse, and singing with Mac Arnold and Plateful of Blues at the Blues, Brews and BBQ Festival were definitely some highlights for me.
