February 2026

Wow! This morning, I had to pull on my Steger Mukluks to do some work up to my knees in this snow. I'm starting to wonder if we're living in Connecticut or Alaska, with no temperatures above freezing for more than two weeks. 

But …..surf’s up!! 

Nicole Zuraitis is coming to AMP for our first LIVE @AMP event for 2026 this Saturday, February 7. No matter how cold it is outside, our giant space is going to be heating up with this jazz concert! Nicole plans to perform My Favorite Songs—to translate from Nicole herself, this means she is giving herself room to sing/play everything from original work that has won her Grammys for the last two years to anything that strikes her mood.

I guarantee this is going to be HUGE once she comes in and feels the vibes at AMP.

Footnote: We are all wishing Nicole good luck on Sunday. She has been nominated for two more Grammy Awards. Hopefully she will score a pair to match the two she already has!
