Hello! Welcome to my
brand-spankin'-new web page. I plan to use this page as a rant, rave, news,
journal-ish space--generally to keep in touch with everyone. If there's a lot
going on, you'll see it; if not, you might see bad 7th grade poetry or maybe a
love letter or two. Feel free to shout
back comments and critiques by dropping me an email!!
New stuff: Today I just heard from Holly Figueroa that
I'm now a performing member of the Indiegrrl network, joining loads of
fabulously talented grrl singer-songwriter-musicians across the land. Keep informed on what's going on there by
clicking my IG link on OuterSpeace!
Also, I'm so happy to receive "Songwriter Magazine"'s Lyric
Award for my song "Cows".
Right now, I'm in the studio recording my latest CD, being produced by
the fabulous John Abbey. We've got it about halfway recorded and I'm hoping to
have it finished by December, just in time for the holiday rush! You can order
preview copies of a few songs on my mp3 site.
I've been able to see
some great performers this month. Jenny Bruce, Jo Davidson, Amy Fairchild, Jen
Chapin, Morgan Taylor, Debby Schwartz and Michal the Girl. All have left me happy to be a party of the
lowereastside scene.
The leaves are
changing at my dog run in Hoboken, NJ (yes, I admit, I'm bridgeandtunnel) and
the air is smelling of Autumn. October is my favorite month in the Northeast
and I'm looking forward to a few weekends getting out of the city into the
foliage. Maybe the Catskills. Maybe Vermont.
Fall reminds me of new school clothes and piles of leaves my father used
to rake and watching the golden leaves trickle down a mountain stream. It
reminds me of new friends and new beginnings. The end of the humidity and the
bad summer action movies. I wish my
apartment had a fireplace...or I had a log cabin in the woods somewhere...ah to
be a bit more financially comfortable! Someday...
A friend led me to
this quote from the poet Rumi. "He who finds love beneath hurt and grief
disappears into emptiness with a thousand new disguises."
Thanks for stopping
by and come back soon.
Amy
