NEWS- Fall 2019

BOOK OF LOVE LIVE

Book of Love continued to perform shows throughout 2019 to wrap up the last dates for our Anniversary Tour. June was exciting month with a great performance at a new venue for us in Houston at White Oak Music Hall and two shows in San Francisco for Pride!

We are currently on hiatus and preparing for a new project.

LAST CHANCE to see the ANNIVERSARY SHOW:

We’ve added two new dates in 2020:

1/11 BOSTON- Brighton Music Hall

2/8 NASHVILLE- Mercy Lounge

We haven’t performed in either of these cities since 1991 and did not want to overlook them on the Tour.

Get your tickets now!!!

The 30th Anniversary Tour was more extensive then we ever could have imagined! We performed over 50 dates and visited 37 cities. Thanks to everyone for their support and for attending these shows!!

We are looking forward to coming back with a new show and production to be announced sometime in 2020.

MISS MELANCHOLY

We were thrilled to see all of you at our book signing at Printed Matter in NYC for the release of “MISS MELANCHOLY”. The book signing took place last March and in NYC and we were all touched by the wonderful turnout! All four-band members were in attendance and signed copies of the book.

Plans to partner with a foundation supporting mental heath issues is in the works. We want to continue to reach out to people regarding anxiety and depression. So, stay tuned for updates regarding “MISS MELANCHOLY”.

FLOWER PARADE

I was so excited and inspired creating “MISS MELANCHOLY”, that I couldn’t wait to get started on a book for the BOOK OF LOVE song “FLOWER PARADE” from the LoveBubble album, 1993.

“FLOWER PARADE”is now a 50 page full-color, limited edition artists’ book.

“FLOWER PARADE” is a glossary of 40 deliciously named, and devastatingly beautiful flora. Stop and smell the roses! Flowers in art, music, mythology and literature have healed, comforted and nourished our souls since- FOREVER!

“FLOWER PARADE”, was released on 10/5 at my solo art show at Saul Lyons Gallery in the New Hope Arts Building in New Hope, PA.

The show included all the original paintings from the book as well as a small selection of other new pieces.

A variety of other “FLOWER PARADE”merchandise was also on sale.

The show was on view in New Hope through November 2.

All of the Flowers have a story!

All of the flowers have a name!”

Thanks to all you came out to New Hope for the show and opening reception. The book and merchandise are now available on this website: susanottaviano.com/artwork/.

Lots of Love, Susan
