The latest
More Than I Can Chew - Every November since 2007, I've participate in National Solo Album Month (NaSoAlMo). More Than I Can Chew is my 2011 effort. Each year, I try to stretch myself and this year I added drum programming to my repertoire. Only baby steps, though -- I didn't completely abandon my Folk Rock chick style.
Inspired by Gulf of Mexico sunrises, cell phone talking, street crossing ladies, a child's sense of wonder, Blanco State Park and life in general. Enjoy!
Stay tuned for what's ahead
Raspberry Silk - I'm very pleased to announce that I'm collaborating with Milo Black again as the duo Raspberry Silk. After 10 years of not collaborating as Raspberry Silk, we decided it was time. We are reviving some songs written way back when and writing new.
Away - A new CD from This Life's Frank Farrow will include a song I cowrote with Frank called "Away" based on the Hollywoodized, true story of Betty Anne and Kenny Waters. Betty Anne put herself through law school to help free her brother Kenny from prison for a crime he did not commit.
Lyric
Seems like a lifetime gone by since Boone's Ferry Days.
Wearing that pioneer dress that my mama made.
My light blue bonnet and parasol shaded my head.
Auntie Alice was baking her homemade zucchini bread.
