Influences: Albums that shaped my musical existence: Indigo Girls "Indigo Girls", Melissa Etheridge "Yes I Am", 10,000 Maniacs "In My Tribe", Toad the Wet Sprocket "fear", The Judds "Rockin' with the Rhythm", REM "Out of Time", Janet Jackson "Rhythm Nation", Aretha Franklin "Greatest Hits", Nanci Griffith "Lone Star State Of Mind", Patsy Cline "Greatest Hits", Gin Blossoms "New Miserable Experience"
2022 may be a less than active year for me. I'm in the middle of moving and have no studio at the moment. Probably the earliest I would have my studio up and running is the last week of February. Not perfect for FAWMing, but good for life in general. Maybe I can do a few phone recordings with just guitar or uke. Possibly some lyrics only. Enjoy your FAWMing. I'll still be around to check out your stuff!

Thank you, Val, for the collaborations and, of course, the 10x10! Always love your music and doing songs with you!
Thanks for the comment on 'Madness'. The Surge XT virtual synth (free!) is awesome for all the sounds it has!
I haven't read any Dolores Cannon but I know she wrote a book on starseeds which I'm not really into? I mean I think some souls probably spent lives on other planets, but that doesn't make them more special than the rest of us, lol. I devoured a bunch of Michael Newton's books recently though and a lot of what I think about past lives and life between comes from that. That and the book Your Soul's Plan by Robert Schwartz.
Well Miss Valerie, thanks for reviewing Pretty Red Wing. Its an "evergreen", meaning it will always be a 'liked' song.
I’m so happy My Body Is a Temple spoke to you! Hooray for messages of self love and body positivity. We need more of those in this world, don’t we?
Thanks Val! Glad you enjoyed. Believe it or not, this song was inspired by a "peanut butter chocolate" hot-chocolate bomb. Which now that I think about it was a little underwhelming lol, but good creative fodder!
Thanks for your comments happy that you enjoid it.. The instrument is a (nigerian) talking drum
Thanks a lot, Valerie! I googled and figured out that somebody tried to mix hardcore punk with yodelling. Not sure if this idea is fresh.
Thanks Val. And yes.. perhaps it could work after all.. 'Bruce was a scientist studying mammals, Denise was just happy on the back of old brucie's camel' :D
Thanks Val. Yeah, he's an ass.
Thanks for listening to Strong Foot Heavy Foot! Anytime someone listens multiple times, that's a great honor. :)
Thank you so much for your kind words!
Thanks so much for your kind words. I appreciate your encouraging feedback.
Thank you for your kind comments on Trendy Girl! You definitely put a smile on my face today. :)
Thank you for your lovely comments on our songs :)
Thank you, Valerie, for your kind words on “Drifting Farther Apart!” I truly appreciate you. Got you on a watchlist and I am really behind. I WILL listen soon!
Thanks for your comments and suggestions on my song. I ll have to play w it more and see if more comes to me!
Aww. Thank you for the listens and the lovely comments, Val!
I certainly cannot escape the 80, though I try and try I am a child of the 80s (metaphorically). Thanks for the kind comments on Running
Wow, that's beautiful. I'm definitely an Earth soul also
Trade you for the reel-to-reel
I'm glad "First Thing That I Made" resonated with you. Maybe you also lived in a cave in a past life!
Thanks Val.
Hey Val!
So great to see you back "Home" Looking forward to hearing some of your creations as they emerge. Thanks for stopping by for a listen to Are You Listening. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Happy FAWMing!
You're right. MORE REVERB, MORE CHAOS
Thankyou for your feedback in the collab Skeletons Dance!
Thanks Val. Tammy is going to sing it for me.
Val,
Looking forward to your Texas kick-assss jams. Cheers, Mark
Hi Val, so happy to see the licence plate git is still getting some love. Looking forward to hearing it this FAWM :D
Thanks for your interest in my theme! I've never sat down with an actual regressionist. I've just done guided past life meditations using the Insight Timer app, and it took a lot of practice to start seeing stuff. Sometimes I see nothing or nonsense and sometimes scenes play out like a historical movie that makes too much sense to be a dream. Wild stuff
I think it just means we are getting old…. :) hoping your February allows for some FAWM fun! Looking forward to your creativity!
Good luck moving! Hope to hear some tunes from ya this year!
Ah, hopefully the limitations will result in new paths of creativity :)
Hey, g'luck with the move!!! Hope all goes well!!
Intensive care unit?
Hey, Val have a nice FAWM 2022. Looking forward to hearing your new songs!
Hi Val!!!
Hiya Val, I'm looking forward to hearing where creativity will take your music!
Hey Val!
Happy FAWM 2022!! Always looking forward to hearing your awesome vocals!
