Music scene blogger and literary artist, Matildakay in the Bakersfield shadows - By N.L. Belardes
While I was attending a graduation reception in the mighty metropolis of Delano—you know, that land of one million blackbirds swarming the Central Valley Skies? Yes, Matildakay was out blog-gathering info on her favorite band in the Bakersfield music scene so she could write a dandy piece and review of her time at the Thunderrun Show at the Kern County Fairgrounds. Yes, that would be Karmahitlist that she went to see. While Cesareo, Jim and Tim have re-worked the Karmahitlist sound, Matildakay is on the scene to write about their showmanship. Seantastic is a rock star and she shows it off in her writing the way he shows off his punk star make-up and Iggy-Mick-Seantastic swagger onstage. That was after she blogged her Karmahitlist Karmahitlist information chain letter looking for show dates.
And yes she did like the show at the fairgrounds. In her piece "Karmahitlist invades Bikerville" she writes wrote about Seantastic, his mighty bullhorn, and about her take on sweaty biker babes.
Matildakay is a new writer honing her skills and is an old friend of mine from back in the South High School days of the 1980s. You go ask her yourself if she had big 80s hair. I’m not saying anything though I do have old yearbooks at home for anyone willing to pay the big bucks for a glimpse of yesteryear.
With that said, she’s been writing about the music scene a lot lately. The scene can use the boost and she offers a lady’s eye view of happenings in the local scene. Read what she recently wrote about Norfolk and Mento Buru at Fishlips, and then about a big show at the Gate where she had literary words for Lost Ocean and Liars and Thieves. Her writing has a refreshing Nicholas Sparks romantic style blended with hipsterisms and a genuine excitement for what she is writing about. She weaves in personal parallels while painting a visual of her interpretation of artistic experiences...
Helping support the music, theatre, and other arts includes supporting writers who are honing their skills while helping to promote art… Let her know she is helping the art scene. We all need encouragement: matildakay2@yahoo.com
