Say hello to the Music Director for the soon-to-open Sorrento/Mesa branch of the
Paul Green School of Rock Music.
Yeah, I took the job. The pay ain't much to start with, but it will go up in the next few months as enrollment reaches a certain level.
I will also be doing sales and marketing, and be in charge of enrollment. I will be the one and only vocal coach in the school as well. I will teach private voice lessons, supervise the band practices, and be in charge of all aspects of the school's productions. Our first production will be Pink Floyd's The Wall.
I am retiring from my massage practice of 9 years, but will continue to work on some of my dearest clients on an outcall basis. The others I will refer to two other therapists in the area who are also my good friends.
Here is the blurb that is being distributed about me in the organization:

Singer. Songwriter. Recording Artist. Performer. Meliesa's career has spanned the glamour and excess of the 80s, the raw sincerity of the 90s, and the introspective sophistication of the new millennium. Her voice, with its smoky lows and clarion highs, ranges from haunting beauty to spine-tingling power. She brings 23 years of professional experience in many facets of the music business to the School. A career musician, she has fronted original and cover bands, led songwriting projects, done session work, vocal coaching, entertainment booking, and music marketing. She has sung everything from Opera to Country to Metal, finding a home in Pop and Rock. It is the sum of her experiences, her passion for music as both art and business, and her desire to educate the next generation on what it REALLY means to rock that makes her a valuable and exciting addition to the faculty of PGSORM Sorrento/Mesa.

I am a happy camper.
Between this job and my band's gigs, I will officially be a full-time career musician.
