delighted that this video of yours truly singing Jacques Brel's wonderful song, 'Amsterdam' made it to Vimeo. But how did it get there??? I never put it there... http://vimeo.com/51981820 And who picks that first image? I look like I'm about to burst into tears??

Another fine review for my Kurt Weill cabaret "Whiskey Bars is, hands down, my pick for best of venue and I'm willing to bet it's the best thing at the Fringe, period" http://www.viewmag.com/2026-FRINGE+FESTIVAL+REVIEWS.htm
excited to see that my CD distribution company CD Baby, has set me up with a Spotify Streaming site.  If you have a subscription you can listen to all of the songs from my three CDs. I can  watch as people around the world play my music! https://play.spotify.com/search/bremner%20duthie 
still in a slump, despite the beautiful weather in New Orleans, crashing through the pages of my old website, trying to update it to new ambitions.  One bright spot is that I keep finding these nice old reviews.  Like this http://www.plankmagazine.com/review/whiskey-bars-kabarett-songs-kurt-weill

"captivating performances of his songs. These are beautifully delivered with power and emotion, set to a hauntingly sparse piano accompaniment. At times we are magically transported to 1930’s Berlin."


having a bleh, 'why did I ever choose this artistic life' kind of day... so I'm redoing my website a bit and looking through some old reviews to cheer myself up

this one was nice
http://www.fringereview.co.uk/fringeReview/2606.html

by the time we arrived at the chillingly Speak Low - calm on the surface, yet bubbling with undercurrents of febrile yearning - we were left with no doubt whatsoever that we were in the presence of a true master of his craft. Still, it doesn't take long to warm to the monologue format, a play interspersed with songs - a solo musical, if  you will.
