You're Invited to my Virtual Salon!
Remember when we used to get together in cafes, listen to live music and talk to each other?
It’s been hard to do that recently, so I am hosting a virtual salon.
- Live music
- Discussion about the song and related themes
- Small group, breakout sessions
- Meet and chat with interesting people
- Free!
When: Sign up below to be informed about the next salon/virtual cafe and to receive a private Zoom link when it takes place. Hope to see you there!
I respect your privacy and value your trust.
I’ll play some live music, talk about the songs, and then we will break out into small, intimate groups – it will be like joining a small table at a cafe and meeting interesting new people. After, we’ll come back together and say goodbye until the next time!
Praise & Reviews
Samantha Simmonds-Ronceros
NoHo Arts
“…beautifully played guitar, gorgeously produced with warmth and honesty… inspired. Clever lyrics and thoughtful themes… Poetic, focused and moving.“
Joshua Macala
Raised by Cassettes
“Musically, I am just such a huge fan of this song […] insightful in the lyrics as it is unique in its sound.”
Sherryl Craig
Nashville Music Guide
“a cool mix of intricate and spicy jazz with a splash of Latin rhythm progressions and some nice arrangements of traditional folk rock. The mood is charged with connotations of political thoughts and concerns about what our future world will face as well as thoughts of dysfunctional relationships and how they affect us.”
Jonathan Frahm
For Folk’s Sake
“…a mighty, encompassing tune; an important inclusion to the 2019 folk music library.”
Jazz..u
“… traditional folk rock with a mix of complex jazz leads and Latin rhythm, perfect for the lyrics with a political overtone”
Michael Stover
Music Existence
Crepes being prepared on a busy urban street corner. The exchange of smiles and steps on the dancefloor. Noir-inspired shadows that allude to a fleeting romance, the sort of which tends to linger with us long after kisses and cognac come to an end. …”Farewell, Farewell Adieu” is a bold amalgamation of genres and expressive textures”
Mindy MacCall
IndiePulse Music
“… unfiltered vulnerability, there isn’t even a hint of hesitation in his execution. Rubinstein is connecting with his medium in this single, capturing the very essence of love without having to rely on mundane metaphors and pop platitudes”
Johnny Taylor Jr.
Now Hear This
“Rubinstein has a lovely voice and musically this is just fine. Lyrically is where he does the most work though… melodic and likable, what’s underneath the surface … will stay with you… Strong cafe rock … in the vein of a modern-day Woody Guthrie.”
Anne Hollister
Indie Source
“… blunt poeticism that exchanges enigmatic verses for relatable, homespun lyrics that appeal to the hopeless romantic in all of us…Haunting, bittersweet and deeply moving… charming and utterly heartfelt”
