Harmony-lovin’ singer/songwriter and aspiring ukulele player.
I’ve been creating vocal music since I was four years old. I used to improvise little melodies and lyrics to entertain myself ~ or to express feelings that otherwise didn’t have an outlet.
In 2021, I finally got serious about developing those little improvisations into complete songs when I became a happy Fawmer. (A decision which turned out to be one of the best ones of my life!)
Words can’t express the elation and excitement I feel now that February has finally rolled around again. But I guess if you’re reading this, you probably already know what I mean without my having to find words to wrap them up in.
Best wishes to all you lovely Fawmers! May your mojo be in full flow. Can’t wait to see what we all come up with this year!
Peace and inspiration,
Natalie

Hi, Natalie. I sent you an email with a song idea.
Patty
And now I'm seeing your very complimentary post on Friendship Hurts. I love what @colgoo did with this, and I'm glad you were moved by it, too. Sorry for my delayed response. FAWM has been a whirlwind!
Natalie,
Now that FAWM is over, I'm finding time to review my page and the comments, and I see one from you on Wrong Story Short that I didn't respond to! Sorry! I really appreciate your detailed comments. I made so many rookie mistakes this year, like responding to comments on my OWN page, not the commenter's page. I will be much better at the mechanics of this next time around! Thank you for taking the time to encourage me!
You did amazing work this past month, Natalie. Thank you for taking the time to listen to so much of my stuff, too!
You have been updated :D
No pressure.
But do it NOW!
Really not in a hurry, I just want to hear what kind of song it could be :)
Thank you so much for your wonderful and that kind and wise words on "Yugoslavia"! I was so happy to read it... Karl did some real magic here...
Try to send that email again? I didn't receive it
And for the SlowMotion, feel free to download it and do your thing and send it back and I will update it. Who cares fawm is over, this month is album listening month :)
Haha :) we finns just are so funny and clever people even tho our reputation is that we are melancholic and grumpy.
Or then it's just me :)
Thanks for the listen and comment on 'Lost and Found'!
Natalie, you broke my zong! You rock! Thank you for your generous hearted compliments. I appreciate them very much. And I've been enjoying your music as well. I'll go back and listen some more..
Thank you so much for your kind comments! I look forward to listening through your catalogue
Congrats on reaching the finishing line! Will be listening more this month so looking forward to commenting on more of your songs :)
Thanks for your kind comments on The Weary Traveler, it was a fun song to write, and I appreciate your support.
Natalie,
I have a song that would sound lovely with your vocals. Do you have an email? I'd like to talk with you about it.
Patty
Natalie, Thanks for your compliments on Wrong Story Short. I'm glad you liked it. I liked your phrase: Cheerful resignation! That's it! Thanks!
Hi Natalie, thank you for your kind comments on my Amy Winehouse tribute song ‘cut’. The vibe is loosely inspired by her music.
Thanks for the listen and comments on the collab I did with Tams, 'We Don't Have a Clue'!
Thank you for your words on the peanut song! I'm glad you can relate to the shock. Or at least chagrin
Thanks for the listen and comment on 'Two for the Road'!
Natalie, thank you for your praise of Hit Man. It was such a fun collab! I was very lucky to be able to work with all these talented people, and I'm really glad you like the result.
