They spoke at Duboce Park Cafe, a couple days before her performance at the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass festival, sorry about the noise. In their conversation Rosie tells us about her band in the ‘80’s and her performances recently at the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival and how that led to her supporting Robert Plant for a tour this winter. Rosie describes her childhood and her musical education learning from her older brother in San Diego starting a band and opening for Creedence Clearwater and the Turtles by the time she was 18. Rosie takes us through her move to LA and her history at the Palomino club where she ran into and became friends with James Intveld, Dwight Yoakam, Albert Lee, John Jorgensen, Dale Watson, Buddy Miller, Jim Lauderdale and a encounter with Jeff Beck. Rosie discusses her guitars and amps throughout the years Fenders, Gibson’s, Vox’s, Trussart and now a Ibanez.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
