Sunset Sessions: People We Met

Whilst we were at Sunset Sessions, we got to meet some really excellent people and enjoy their prodigious company. The Sunset Sessions attract all manner of world-class people, including our new friend, the awesome Laura Curtin, a music industry and rock-and-roll titan as well as current El Capitan of Curtin Rises Music Promotion. (Editors Note: Link removed due to malware. Google this woman, it's worth it! -N.)

Laura's "About" page reads like a Who's-Who of modern rock and pop. She's been responsible for the success of such artists as Pearl Jam, the Spin Doctors (my favorites!), the Indigo Girls (Eri's favorites!) and Rage Against the Machine, to name only a scant few. On top of that, the company currently represents a huge cross-section of musical styles, from Keb' Mo' to the Backstreet Boys to Korn. She's the real deal, yo.

Laura and Chris Rock! Wooooah!

The Empty Pockets had the distinct pleasure of hanging with Laura several times throughout our stay at the Sunset Sessions. She's very nice and an excellent laugh-er, which made Erika's jokes actually funny.
