    2 More Dates With London Drummers and More Puffy Paint Shirts

    Alright folks. With the deadline quickly approaching more and more female drummers and beatmakers are willing to step up to the plate and sell themselves for the sake of the magazine. Now that's dedication. Just posted 2 new dates with London based drummer Laura Fares and and beatmaker Megane Quashie. Both on the cusp of fame and fortune, both featured in Tom Tom Magazine, both a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
    Megane pictured above and Laura below.
    PLUS! My mom made FOUR MORE puffy paint one-of-a-kind Tom Tom shirts - back by popular demand. She made one pair of gym shorts too but we are gonna hold off on those for right now.
