One Woman Orchestra




Whenever I want to cheer myself up I think about Zoë Keating. She is an incredibly talented cellist, and I love her scrappy style. When asked how she deals with rejection, she responds, "I get rejected all the time. I think I have some kind of bloody minded, self-preservation streak that makes me honestly believe that the person or group who rejected me is just ignorant and/or maybe didn’t get the right impression me…and then I forget about it and try again. I’d still be making music even if no one was paying attention." And here she is, making her music in the San Francisco airport. I would have stopped. I hope.
