    Singer Songwriter Jackie Lipson on the power of your voice, the creative process and Lizzo! 🎵🌈

    Singer Songwriter Jackie Lipson on the power of your voice, the creative process and Lizzo! 🎵🌈

    After appearing on UniversalNBC’s The Voice, Jackie fearlessly packed her bags and moved to Los Angeles, not knowing anyone who lived there. A coincidental meeting introduced her to Vanessa Wheeler, artist and guitarist professionally named VAVÁ and bassist/producer Francisco Ojeda, leading to an explosive debut single in 2020 “Someday”. “Someday” speaks to the generation of lost millennials who are really, really just trying their best and landed on Spotify’s Fresh Finds, New Music Friday Denmark, Music for a Workday, Billboard, Audemars Piguet’s and Chani Nicholas’ Cosmic playlists. Billboard called “Someday” a “soothing, lush slice of dream pop”.

    Check out her new single “Everything Sucks” dropping May 7th, 2022

    Let’s laugh and drink w/comedians Theresa Moriarty and Jackie Gold

    Let’s laugh and drink w/comedians Theresa Moriarty and Jackie Gold

    Theresa Moriarty is a NYC based actress and comedian. She started her career modeling and in commercial gigs at just 8 years old! One of her first gigs was on Saturday Night Live as a kid, and she’s been performing since. After graduating from Manhattan College, Theresa went on to study acting with Susan Batson and began working in TV, Film and Voiceover. You’ve heard her as the voice of Macy’s, Downy, Ulta Beauty and countless other commercials. In 2018 Theresa started performing stand up all over NYC and you can find her at the city’s hottest clubs and on Instagram (@tmolynn) slinging jokes. Currently, catch Theresa live on stage, Wednesdays at Route 66 Comedy Club in New York City or as Tina in Made in Chinatown, streaming on Amazon Prime!

    When she’s not working, Theresa loves to cook, read, style clothes and hang out with her husband, daughter and “sweet” Pomeranian.

    Jackie Gold was raised on the tough middle-class Jewish streets of
    Brooklyn, NY. Growing up in a conservative- Jewish home meant
    having to develop a sharp tongue and a quick sense of humor. Her
    humor is brutally honest, as she has a way of putting into words that
    thought you’ve been thinking; but have been too afraid to say.
    Jackie’s comedy album “Maximum Occupancy” debuted at #1 on
    Amazon and iTunes. She has been a writer for CBS, Comedy Central
    and VH1.

Refreshing + So Needed 💗

Cece and Ryan offer a refreshing spin and much needed perspective on everything from contemporary political issues to gender dynamics while on set. The two hosts have a natural ease about them and compliment one another so well whether they be digging to the bottom of something or interviewing their incredible array of guests. Their rawness is beyond welcome in light of these highly curated times.
