Inspired by Sally Struthers, we made a very informative video about the importance of art, and BEING A GIVER! To see this rollicking fun, GO HERE!

Also, frequent collaborator, singer/songwriter Kristy Hanson is releasing her new ALBUM, Into the Quiet, on March 31st in LA! Haviland will be there! Go here for more details!

UNUSUAL WAY

BORDERLINE and CRAZY ON YOU

And now, back to the ALBUM FUNDRAISING (more updates on that next week), and of course, PILOT SEASON!

Stay tuned for more exciting news, photos and videos…

BE A GIVER!

UPRIGHT AT VERMONT THURS, FEB 25TH @9PM

More info:  The “modern day Scarlett O’Hara” returns to Upright for one night only, to sing an eclectic set ranging from pop to musical theatre to country to straight up rock n’ roll. Referred to as “a tight little ball of spunk, bad ass and class,” Haviland appeared on the Broadway in FIDDLER and LES MIS before moving to LALA land, and TV lovers will recognize her from her stint on EASTWICK. She is also an activist for Equality, and she can be seen and read all over the internet, fighting for our rights. Haviland will appear in the soon to be released feature BELOW THE BELTWAY, and is currently working on her first album, which will be released in the fall of 2010. Follow her on facebook and twitter!

I’m returning to Upright Cabaret IN CONCERT on Thursday, February 25th at 9pm, at their new location, The VERMONT! It’ll be my very fun and eclectic set, including new songs and fabulous musicians! For more info and to purchase tickets, Click HERE.

And the REALLY BIG NEWS…

This spring, I’m recording my first album!!! I’ve been working with Music Director Steven Jamail and Producer Mike Croiter to deliver to you what we’re certain is going to be a killer debut(ante) album. Because we’re all about collaboration in Havi-Land, we want YOU to be involved…and here’s how!

BE A GIVER in our fundraising campaign! We love politics, and we’re kicking off this campaign full force. Yes, we totally can, and we will. As givers, YOU can be an integral part of the album’s success.

The campaign runs NOW thru APRIL 1. Obvs “in this economy,” it’s kind of insane to ask people for anything, so whatever support you can offer is sincerely appreciated. Honestly, this whole thing is about connecting us, and allowing YOU to be part of IT. Any amount is much appreciated!

Thank you SO MUCH for your support, on whatever level you can give. Art is a collaboration, and when you give, you basically become a producer. You are an integral part of the process of making something! So, the album’s success should feel like yours, too. We’re all in this together, kiddos! Hope to see you all in Hollywood on February 25th at 9pm for the CONCERT!

Smiles,

Haviland*
