You're Invited to my Virtual Salon!

Virtual salon gathering

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

How It Works

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'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!

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

"… 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"

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 Holister

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"
