Thanks, Steve TV. What fun!

Thanks to her win at the San Francisco Songwriters’ event in May with her song, “The Moth,” Japa performed among the winners of other months at the yearly playoffs at the SF Westcoast Songwriters’ event on July 25th. Although she didn’t win, it was a wonderful experience, great company, terrific music and a good time was had by all.
