Very Fun Christmas Performances!!

Today, Dec. 15th, was a terrific day of Christmas performances! Soozee performed Christmas music at the Harmony Nursing Home in Two Rivers for their afternoon party. Over 75 people attended and had a wonderful time. The rhythm instruments were passed out to everyone, and the singing and music making was joyous! Everyone seemed to have a very good time, including Soozee! It was so wonderful to see the residents of the home engaged and enjoying themselves by participating in the music making!

This evening, Soozee and Maria performed for the Marquette Manor holiday open house, and again, it was a very good time. Again the rhythm instruments were passed out to the residents, and although the crowd was much smaller (approximately 15 - 20 people), it was another joyous time of holiday fun, as songs were song, instruments were played, and stories were told.

Both celebrations included some good eats! Wonderful holiday foods for holiday cheer.

Recording in Progress





Eventually TRAVOIS! will have a brand new CD available to folks. Soozee got together with her son, Try, to learn about recording. He has a "home studio", and Soozee and Try had a great time recording "Healing Path", last weekend.

Michicot Pumpkin Fest






Saturday, October 20th, 2007 was a beautiful day in Michicot, WI, for Pumpkin Fest, and TAVOIS! added to the festivities. Performing on a small stage on Main Street, we played a variety of our originals, as well as a number of fun "pumpkin carols" to entertain the folks attending the community event. Our favorite was "Pumpkin Bells", sung to "Jingle Bells", and Maria spiced it up adding the cow bell as Soozee sung the chorus. We also did some drumming, and had a few children join us in the rhythm-making. After performing, we browsed the various vendor booths, and watched/participated in the dancing by a drum/dance group of Potawatomi Indians. Michicot is named after the historic figure, Chief Michicot, of the Potawatomi Nation. The Potawatomi onced inhabited the Michicot area.
