Who’d a thunk that moving to San Diego would be such a good idea?

"Happening upon real creativity, unexpectedly, is always a kick ~ life affirming, invigorating ... last week a bit of serendipitous music interrupted my low-level depression ... the music came in the form of one Sara Messenger.

... a heretofore unknown ... musical monster of genius ... [Messenger] is among the most talented people we have in this town.

... She attracts side musicians of the first order, who often waive any payment. Personally, I would pay a good hourly fee just to play guitar over her left hand alone. Messenger is herself an excellent guitarist. When God handed out the talent, she was the one holding up the line."
