Independence is alive and well in the USA!    50 dates and 25 states! That's what "I did this summer'. My journey to the USA with Music From The Big House took me from NY to Miama, California to Washington State, Indiana to New Orleans and much more. And the film continues to screen in many cities without me.   A very special 'welcome to the enewsletter' and 'thank you' to the countless new fans who came to see the film and hear me perform in their town.   And a very huge 'thank you' to the amazing folks, film buffs, music fans and artists, blues society and film society members, independent cinema owners, arts lovers and patrons. To the theater owners, employees and volunteers who through their passion and committment keep the many magical independent theaters beautifully restored and maintained, to all of you who support independent film and for that matter, independent music - I thank you from the bottom of my heart.  I came back from the tour weary, yes, but mainly very encouraged energized about the fact that all across the U.S. independence in art LIVES. And for that I am truly grateful.     The many great times, places and folks we met have been captured in photos, videos, reviews and fan comments and can all be found on the Rita's Facebook Official Fan Page.     Judging by the response received on the tour, it won't be long before I'm once again States-bound and maybe coming to your town!   Best....Rita xx         MUSIC FROM THE BIG HOUSE NOW AVAILABLE ON DVD!
