Update #16: tomorrow's the big day!
our record release - sans the records as they're not actually done yet - will be held at the Swedish American Hall, a big room in the style of all old meeting halls with heavy dark wood and pristine acoustics.
we'll have download cards and songbooks for those of you who will be coming to the show and whose rewards included these. (records will come later). just go to the merch table at any point and the person working the table will have a list with your name & rewards due on it.
my excitement is mingled with nerves and the long, long list of things to do before then including making some tshirts :) and busking downtown at rush hour with Savannah as our final promotional push . . .
much love to you all!

Project By
Has not connected their Facebook account.
born in Maine during a blizzard, annie grew up being able to hear the foghorn warning drifting ships of coastline as she drifted off to sleep. annie is a poet who uses music as her form, and draws more on inspiration than imagination. her music ranges from forward tilting rock, to the sweet coos of the ukulele. she is comfortable on the guitar, ukulele, upright or electric bass, and dabbles in whatever instrument might find itself under her fingers.
she composed her Folk Opera on a whim in Feb/March of 2009 while traveling in the UAE and southern Africa. it combines her love of hyperbole and folk music, and was her first foray into the world of the ukulele.
