Who is ready for the Grammy’s tonight, I know I am. If you know you know I love music, because music is life it reminds you of events, trips and so much more. I always quote music lyrics on almost everything I do, my hard drive (brain) is storing new music on a daily basis. If you follow me on any my social media, especially on snapchat and Instagram (@rossanavanoni) you will see all my music related snaps, post and sing alongs (pardon my voice).
So when I was invited to attend the Grammy’s Gifting Suite for the 58th Annual GRAMMY® Awards
This year marks the 17th year Distinctive Assets will be hosting the Official Backstage GRAMMY Gift Lounge and I couldn’t be happier to have been a part of it.
