Starting Friday, January 8th, Jazz Singer/Songwriter—Marcus Goldhaber—will be hosting a weekly after-hours performance at The Night Hotel.

NIGHTtime @ The Night Hotel is a great place to cozy up this winter for some jazz in a dramatically imagined boutique hotel. Located just steps from Times Square, the lounge is tucked away in the back of the hotel, unbeknownst to passerby’s on the street. The hotel features a seductive specialty cocktail menu and dinner list to accompany the live jazz show, which is free of charge, and escapes to the era of the 20s, 30s, and 40s every Friday night in January and February. With two sets at 9:30pm and 11:00pm respectively, it’s perfect for the after-dinner or after-theater crowd.

Amanda Dolan's first venture in sculpting - her idea of a "post-modern flower pot."

Mixed-media artist and AMP3 client Amanda Dolan unveiled her latest collection of artwork, titled “Precious Things” on Saturday night, October 17th, 2009 at the Ward-Nasse Gallery on Prince Street in SoHo.

Unlike Amanda’s other shows, this collection was more cheerful in theme. Each of the pieces featured a vibrant mix of bright colors like pink, blue and purple – all mixed with hearts, flowers, rainbows and more – including Amanda’s beloved French bulldog, Pearl. About half of the works from “Precious Things” sold the night of the opening. In addition, Amanda unveiled her first venture into sculpting by creating a piece that featured the bottom half of a mannequin covered in mixed media turned into what Amanda calls a “post-modern flower pot.”

Amanda was dressed to match her works of art as well, donning Betsey Johnson from head-to-toe with a black vintage Betsey Johnson dress, black Betsey tights with pink roses, and leopard print Betsey pumps.

White and red wine were served to guests in attendance, along with an array of colorful mini-cupcakes, customized M&Ms, and hard candy shaped in hearts and gem rings to match the occasion.

Amanda’s exhibit is on display until October 31st, 2009. For more information about Amanda Dolan, her work, and her private commission portrait services, visit www.AmandaDolan.com.

The opening for Amanda Dolan’s latest installation of artwork, “Precious Things,” will be on Saturday night, October 17th. This exhibit, which is the follow-up to “Call Me Crazy” and “Heart Attack,” is different for Amanda in the sense that she hasn’t set herself to a rigid theme. Instead, she has put together a diverse collection of her most recent inspirations – including more mixed media art, doggie portraits, and even some sculpture work which she is dubbing “post-modern flower pots.”

Last night (August 19), AMP3 PR hosted a private event for the tech influencers and trendsetters of the industry that featured a sneak preview for the up-and-coming website and AMP3 PR client, Blazetrak.com.

The site focuses on connecting aspiring talent with existing talent across different platforms (music, TV, film and fashion, just to name a few) for a fee that is set by the professional. In return, the hopeful singer, dancer, or rapper can get a personalized video critique and feedback from their professional of choice, letting them know what they thought of their work while they make money from the user-submitted material.

Three of the founders – Nate Casey, Ron Harrison and Corey Stanford – were all on hand at the event to show the demo to the guests.

The site is slated to launch on September 15th, 2009.
