Enjoy ArtBeat’s Sippin’ Sundays !

Barbier has become iconic in North County and throughout San Diego for her mellifluous voice and captivating spirit. She performs at events small and large, and says she enjoys the intimacy of ArtBeat. “Everyone’s friendly and I love singing while being surrounded by beautiful art. 

Barbier can be sampled at www.soundcloud.com/celestebarbier and enjoyed in person every Sunday afternoon at ArtBeat. Matthews says, “Our downtown Vista vibe has become quite melodious, thanks to Sippin’ Sundays with sultry Celeste!”
