Recuperation journey: Inspiring scene


As I was leaving today's Art in the Park event in Veterans Park in Ansonia I noticed the dignified bust of the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. in front of City Hall appeared to be looking toward the American flag.

SEYMOUR - Growing up, many kids dream about becoming rock stars. 
Seymour High School graduate Kate Mirabella, is no exception. 
On July 17 that dream came one step closer to reality when her band, Passing Strange, signed a record deal with NeuroTronix Records - an independent label in Seymour.
After three years of playing shows around the state, recording music, and raising funds for organizations like Bridges Healthcare, Milford Prevention Council, and To Write Love on Her Arms, Passing Strange is finally moving up in its musical career.

“It’s the kind of thing every musician dreams of, one day signing with a record label,” said Kate, who sings and plays piano in the band. “This is how all my heroes started out, and I’m hoping it’s the first big step on the road to great things.”

Drummer Anthony Paolucci said, "We’re hoping that by signing with NeuroTronix, this will open a lot of doors that might not otherwise be available to us. We’re excited to be working with Rick (Demko); he believes in our music as much as we do. With his experience and expertise, we’ll be able to reach even more people.”

You can check out Passing Strange’s pre-label album, Come Whatever Storms, on Spotify.

Congratulations and best of luck in the future!
