About My Book MisGuided

It is slam - poetry expressing the thought process of a person who’s endured so much but still believes good exist . Someone who’s lived in the dark so long but understood that in the dark was not where they wanted to build their home, so they keep moving . It’s faith in better is to come if you can just overcome the biggest battle, the biggest obstacle. Which is self. If you can get past the negative thought process that continuously make its way to the mind then you can reach a breakthrough towards becoming the version of you , you’ve only dreamed was real. Misguided is what happens when we are taught the wrong things, handed a tough deck of cards early in life and asked to deal them. Misguided touches on toxic relationships , Domestic Violence , Self-Doubt , Insecurities , Anxiety , Depression , Religion & Finding your voice and your place in the world. Misguided is based on the ugly bottom . The Fall . The moment that pushed us towards looking up & telling God , I’m ready . I’m ready to receive with tears running down your cheeks.

Acerca de mi libro Mal Guiado

Es poemas que expresa el proceso de pensamiento de una persona que sufrió mucho pero que todavía cree que Dios existe. Alguien que ha vivido en la oscuridad tanto tiempo pero que entendió que en la oscuridad no era donde querían construir su casa, así que siguen moviéndose. La fe en lo mejor está por venir si puedes superar la batalla más grande, el obstáculo más grande. Que es uno mismo. Si puedes superar el proceso de pensamiento negativo que continuamente llega a la mente, entonces puedes lograr un gran avance para convertirte en la versión de ti que solo has soñado que era real. Equivocado es lo que sucede cuando nos enseñan las cosas equivocadas, nos entregan una baraja de cartas dura a temprana edad y nos piden que las repartamos. Habla sobre relaciones tóxicas, violencia doméstica, dudas sobre uno mismo, inseguridades, ansiedad, depresión, religión y encontrar tu voz y tu lugar en el mundo. Mal Guiado se basa en el fondo feo. La caída. El momento que nos empujó a mirar hacia arriba y decirle a Dios, estoy listo. Estoy listo para recibir con lágrimas corriendo por tus mejillas.

The first Indian-born  jazz composer to premiere work at Carnegie Hall, Charu has been playing the piano since the age of five, and performing since the age of nine. She won an international piano competition at the age of 15.

Her recently-released "Book of Ragas vol. 2" is a completely original sound in jazz, and continues her work done in the first volume. In this new album, which was highlighted  by Jazz at Lincoln Center as an August new release, Suri uses her native Carnatic and Hindustani ragas (modal scales) as the basis for jazz piano improvisations, layered by Sufi singing. Her more classic album, "The New American Songbook" has garnered many awards, including a "Band Single of the Year" crystal trophy for her song, Bluesy, awarded by the International Singer-Songwriters Association (ISSA) in 2021.

She was also awarded a gold "Jazz Artist of the Month" record by ISSA.  Suri was recommended to join the Recording Academy (GRAMMYs) in 2021.

The trio consists of Charu Suri on the piano, Justin Lee on the double bass, Jay O’Brien and Jesse Gerbasi on the drums, and the vocal talents of Sufi singer Umer Piracha (Falsa) and Songbook vocalist Danielle Erin Rhodes.

During the pandemic, she composed the "Book of Ragas vol. 2" that taps into the beauty of morning ragas, as well as several Songbook singles including "A Little Joy" and "Keep Dreaming."

She has started live gigs and completed tours recently in Miami, and is planning a big multi-city tour in India in 2022.

A singer songwriter with unique influences, Roberta Lamb draws on her classical vocal training, her love of blues and pop, and her appreciation for a timeless tune to entertain at a variety of venues. A native Texan, she’s based out of Rhode Island, and she can be found performing gigs at cafes, folk festivals, farmers markets and wherever artists share their voices in New England, New York and now, since Covid-19, in Israel, the UK and Germany, so far. Her music, including her album, Not Your Mama’s Blues, is streamed on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music and Bandcamp.
