Sonoma County, CA. ~ “Accen- tuate the Positive” … as the song goes, and “Watch What Happens! Songwriters Narayan & Janet cre- ate every song they write to uplift others and have a positive impact …and it really works! After moving from Seattle to Sonoma County 3 years ago, the duo recently re- leased their 4th CD of upbeat originals enti- tled We Are All Connected fea- turing Narayan on trumpet, Janet on keyboards and the duos exquisite vocal harmo- nies. To describe an evening with Narayan & Janet think…”Happy” by Pharrel and the Beatles All You
Need Is Love. A delicious blend of jazz, Motown and pop/rock music. The cover art for the record fea- tures a gorgeous hand-painted mandala by London artist ROSELLA en- titled Awakening and like the cover art, these original songs awaken and inspire us to have a happier life experience.

JOKES & Humor # 5
Once upon a time, there lived a beautiful young fairy princess who dreamed of being a ballet dancer. Then one day, she read an ad in her email that an- nounced the Royal Ballet’s next auditions in a nearby town. So on the right day, the fairy princess geared up one hundred white pigeons to her chariot, and off they fl ew to the theater. After witnessing her outrageous entrance, the director immedi- ately told her to go back home. “But why?” wept the broken- hearted shell of the would-be- ballerina.
“Because,” came the heartless reply, “I’ve got enough pigeon- towed dancers in the company already.”
