Pluggin Away... Yes, I know, I know...it’s been a while. Summer happened very fast and now glorious fall is upon us. The best time of year up here in New England. I haven’t made the annual apple orchard/pumpkin patch pilgrimage yet, but it’ll happen soon. I can’t wait! I can already smell/taste the cider donuts and hot apple cider. Absolute best!!
Updates on the new album....
We made it into the studio for Day #2 (thanks to some generous angels) on September 1st and got some great stuff done. My friend/co-writer/bass player for The Click Five, Ethan Mentzer has now taken on my project in the roll of Producer-Man.

...and a self portrait of me in my booth....

....and the boys during playback....

Since that glorious day in September, I’ve been down to Brooklyn 2ce (where Ethan lives) to record my lead vocals. I’m so pleased with how they’ve turned out and I am so excited for all of you to hear it! Next up...guitar over-dubs and back-up vocals...maybe some keyboard loveliness to finish it out.
We’re still in need of an army of angels to come through to help us finish this project!! In the days to come, I’m going to be announcing a new fundraising campaign...a very fun one! ...involving yummy things!! Stay tuned for details. However, you can always donate the old-fashioned way...
Thank you to all of my angels listed here, in no particular order, for helping out. Couldn’t have done this without you. Really!!

...If I can get 500 people that love music, or just love helping those in the arts, to donate just $10 each (or more), then I'll be in decent shape to get most of this album done. So, if you feel like supporting an indie singer/songwriter get her art out into the world, please donate! And, SPREAD THE WORD!!
Thank you so much!
