Soon after you left, I turned into an owl…

Goodmorning friends,

Its strange, when I had a day job, I couldn’t sleep past 7am, because I had trained myself to wake up for work. Now I wake up right at 10am, because they always want us to check out of hotels by 11. ha

Tonight we’ll be playing at Cappy’s in tampa. here is a link to the event. It will be our first time playing there, but it will be a good one- its their anniversary party. Come on out! http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=143523612339921&ref=ts

We are deep into booking September and October dates with Justin from the band Mousefire ( http://myspace.com/mousefire) they will be taking us on their tour in November as support. Im excited to be getting into these markets and play for new folks that have never heard us. Everything is slowly starting to fall into place.

In october we will be going back to our song writing home of Sturgeon Bay to take a part in the Dark Songs Festival. I can’t wait to go back. Its always rehab for me.

Im posting our dates as they are confirmed. Please take a look at our calendar/ tour page to see where we will be, again we’ll be taking on half the country in a matter of months so I want to make sure that if we are in your area, you know that we’re coming!

Ive been writing heavily the last couple of weeks which is going to result in an online ONLY release of our acoustic EP which we will be recording at the end of August. Im excited to go back to the acoustic roots, if you can call it that. Soon Ill have more info on that for you soon.

Its a whole bunch of preparation for a whole bunch of doing. The world is spinning round and we’re all just going with the flow.

We have some good shows coming up in the tampa bay are so please come on out if you’re around and free.

Today we go thrift hunting.

adios

Tonight is a good night. 

I have developed a real positive feeling over the last couple of days. I see my obstacles, I acknowledge them, and I welcome them. I am aware of my path I’m really ready to walk it. 

In the real world, and in dreams, our lives are the same: there is hope, there is conflict and there is resolution. No matter how tragic or spectacular, in the end, the outcome is always the best situation for the greater good. It all makes sense. I think that whatever my heartships, whatever my trouble and struggles may be, in the end, the outcome will be what needed to happen. 

I am sitting tonight in good company, in good atmosphere, missing the road, missing my band and missing the fans, but this is a much needed break and deliberation period. I think I’m ready finally to take the load on without buckling under the stress and pressure. 

I’m back to writing songs and being able to write without expectations, but just for the pure purpose for therapy and getting things off my chest and onto the paper, like heart web strings, making a home. I’m back!

I’m trying my hardest to put aside the paranoia and scare tactics that have been nailed into my head about the music business and taking chances. You know what I say? I am the exception. I don’t are (respectfully) what the veterans and masterminds of the music industry think about the music industry. I am a songwriter and a musician and I like millions out there believe in what I’m doing and will continue on with what I’m doing at all cost, because it’s my duty to, because it’s the only thing I know how to do, and because there are millions of people who need me.

So,I love you fans, I love you music, I love you music industry experts, I love you famous music icons and I love you haters. I am one girl against the world and I am all packed up and ready to come and change your mind.
