A Life Designed is a natural extension of my ongoing interest and work in the creative realm. Over the past couple of years, as I have been posting my thoughts on art and music, sharing links of interesting design work I find and posting my own art and musical compositions on Facebook, I found that more and more, people were commenting and complimenting me on my selections and design sensibilities. This blog, dedicated to all things design, music, architecture, men’s fashion and lifestyle is my opportunity to expand my thoughts on subjects that I enjoy immensely and share that passion with others. I hope the viewers of this blog will have as much fun reading this as I am writing it!”

Good Evening Randy.
I’m Tanya Medina from the NYC Rock band SanzEnd. I saw your post on one my favorite new bands and that’s hard for me to say because it’s tough for me to have a new favorite band as I feel they don’t do the past justice. Anyway the band was Fitz and the Tantrums. I just adore there sound and soul and that’s what I’m about. I have a solo project called TANADRA which is hard rock infused with alternative and what grew from that is my side band SanzEnd. We’ve already been called NYC first EPIC rock band. It’s got funk, soul, pure rock and roll some alternative and a heavy dose of pop rock, but you can be the judge of that.
I think you might like the sounds we have to offer and if you do we’d be so excited to be apart of your music blog.
Again we are SanzEnd and I do hope to connect with you soon
Warm Regards,
Tanya ( singer, songwriter and co producer)
