Miranda Celebrates Two Milestones

Posted Feb 02, 2011

Miranda Music CEO Kitty Skrobela celebrated her 70th birthday and Miranda's 15th year in business in a gala performance at New York's Metropolitan Room. Miranda artists Marcus Simeone, Tracy Stark, Kathleen France and Sean Harkness presented songs from their past and future CDs and other favorites.

Surprise guest Kitty Skrobela represented artists who are gone by singing John Wallowitch's song "This Moment," the last song on Miranda's first CD, Berri Blair's Blame It on my Youth. Regrettably, other Miranda artists were not able to be present - the good news is that this is a good excuse for another show. Stay tuned for news.

Meanwhile, relax, chill out and sip a mai tai with Kathleen's show Vacation at Don't Tell Mama.
