Tomorrow night, 11/25, Yoshi's Oakland: My First Time!

This is it! Tomorrow night it's my *first time headlining* at Yoshi's
Jazz Club in Oakland's lovely Jack London Square. We have almost sold
out the 8 pm show (there is also a 10 pm show, with a different set list),
and guess what, folks -- we had our fans in mind
when we decided to make this FREE show rather than $16 per ticket.
Yoshi's has done a few of these in the last few months, but they want
you to know that this will be the *last* free show for a long while.
Please don't take this amazing place for granted!

I am so honored to be playing a club that just hosted a run of McCoy
Tyner shows last week! I promise you, if you come down (and bring
kids, they are more than welcome), you will leave our concert with an
enjoyable lightness of being, a desire to be more color-coordinated
and a new fondness for fish! You will want to clap more frequently and
laugh louder than anyone else. You will invest in dance lessons
promptly, if only to ensure you do not dance like I do! And one week
later, your significance in the universe will be revealed in a fortune
cookie accidentally delivered to your table by a spastic waiter with
Tourette's.

It's all connected, and so are we.

Please join us tomorrow night!

Un gran abrazo,

Alexa

P.S. David Belove, joining me on bass tomorrow, is also a wonderful
photographer who took some lovely new promo pix for me. Check 'em out
here!

LARGE GROUPS @ YOSHI'S CONTEST

Several of you have kindly informed me that you are coming to the
show with groups of 6, 10 or more music fans. I would like to take
pictures with any of those large groups. Further, I will award one
free CD to the organizer of each group of 6 or more that comes to the
show. But be honest, now! No spontaneous group-forming, OK? And no
fighting over the CD. Let's all be happy.

Oakland singer-songwriter Alexa Weber Morales performs at Yoshi's
Jack London Square with a crack team of musicians Tuesday, November 25
at 8 and 10 PM. The Alexa Weber Morales Band has enjoyed success
throughout this year, starting with a three-night run at Jazz at
Pearl's in San Francisco and continuing through the San Jose Jazz
Festival. At recent shows, the exuberant performer has emphasized the
Brazilian segment of her repertoire, including selections from her
Wayne Wallace-produced albums Vagabundeo and Jazzmérica; songs by Edu
Lobo, Caetano Veloso and Guinga; and her own originals.

With her trademark spectrum of world music including salsa,
Brazilian, Caribbean and funk, Alexa Weber Morales brings a refreshing
authenticity to the stage. "I find her command of Latin idioms
completely convincing, entrancing even," writes Village Voice critic
Tom Hull, while the San Francisco Chronicle predicts, "With a voice
sweet, pure and strong, Alexa Weber Morales is poised to ride the Bay
Area Latin jazz scene to national recognition."

The Alexa Weber Morales Band includes Murray Low, piano; Omar
Ledezma, percussion and vocals; David Belove, bass; Zareen, vocals;
and Deszon X. Claiborne, drums. Both Murray and David are veteran
studio musicians who can be heard on Alexa's two solo recordings.

These two shows are free of charge as a special "Audience
Appreciation Night" at the peerless jazz club. Reserve your tickets
online today ($3 service fee applies)!
