New Music: A Good Man Beside Me
I am a bit ambivalent about this song. Also, it needs a makeover and new sound. However, in terms of the theme of the new album it is a fit. Hence, I am considering it.

The tracks are going to Berlin. Well, the ones I decide on for the new album. I have been posting so many dodge electronic songs here and there. Okay, not dodge but not songs I would put on an album. I do that to keep sane and not lose my mind. I know, I know….I […]
Again, a Seth Grey instrumental. This song was always in the running for something, somewhere. Not mixed or mastered and all of done at home with a USB mic and a mad family who won’t leave me alone. Did I mention they are also very noisy? The idea of giving clean vocals to any producer […]
I think of people the way I think of music. Wait, allow me to rephrase. I think of certain people that way. I am guilty of wrapping people I care for in music, rather carefully, note by note. I can see the Melodies leave their skin like a trail of smoke. Smoke I must…gather up […]

After writing my second album, Call It Love and getting divorced,going on stage with all those sad songs seemed rather….daunting. I recall that clearly. And the big argument with my daughter that ensued. I am singing away my sadness girl, I said. Not out in town dancing and having my way with men. So let […]
I took an early morning stroll to the lagoon and decided to have a little chat with the her and sea around the corner. Yeah, yeah…a small meditation at the edge of the water at 6am. Nothing weird about that at all. Anyhoo, I was communing with Mother Nature, asking for advice and waiting if […]
Falling in love isn’t easy, especially if it wasn’t your plan to fall in love, despite being very reasonable at every turn. So I did the one thing I shouldn’t. I lost my footing, listened to other people, got completely freaked out and …wrote music. Like one possessed. Then I went to India and only […]
At the end of the day – that’s what it comes down to. Your heart, who and what you find lingering there. I asked a friend why I find it so hard to navigate this pandemic on certain days. Facing fear, whether it is my own, those of people I love or the collective snakes […]
