“Music has charms to sooth a savage breast”
- William Congreve

Music has always had the ability to comfort during the hard times and elate during the good times. This bra has been inspired by the many local musicians who have helped me get through some difficult times through their music. Special thanks goes to Ralph Agresta, Lester Saldinger, Benoir and the Long Beach All Stars, Wonderous Stories, Godfrey Townsend, Terri Bishop, Felix Cartegena, Luana Halili, Sammi Hoop, Gary Schechter and all “The Usual Suspects” who have provided the guitar strings, guitar picks, drum sticks and encouragement to build this bra. I think that the best part is the fact that when the drumsticks hit each other it can make its own music. It’s a reminder that with a little help from our friends we all have that ability within ourselves.
