Hey Folks!!!

whew!!!  What a trip this is!

52 more hours to go and you wanna know what I'm thinking....I'm stinking blessed and about to make an amazing record because of you!  105 backers have given me $4,900 so far!  If you would like to spend a few very valuable minutes ensuring that this happens, here's what you can do:

Due to facebook's algorithms changing and the whole mechanism of FB being radically different in how it is perceived by our social consciousness, it is highly, highly effective if you have the time to write your sentiments about my music and its effect(S) on you in message (email or FB) form or text (phone) to your friends who are most likely going to consider supporting an indie feminist afro-folk singer/songstress R&B/rock piped project....because they are a musician, a chick who is liberated, into crowd-funding phenomenon, likes chicks who are liberated, trust you, and/or are just into really awesome music...this record is going to be awesome and I'm soooo excited to make it!!! 

Thank you for inspiring me with your support! If you have a few minutes, please consider sending out some words to friends before wednesday!   Otherwise, thank you for lending me informational time in your mind and world!!!

    "AZUSA Revisited" (MP3 format). Johanna's 4th full-length album, "Azusa", was released towards the end of her studies at Azusa Pacific University and in the midst of her "coming-out" experience as a person of faith heavily engaged in conservative and progressive faith communities. "Azusa Revisited" is Johanna's revisit of this album, selecting songs and adding a few new songs to add to the conversation of equality and understanding for those involved or formerly involved in religious institutions.

    I will dedicate a song to you and will somehow creatively insert your names on the track...like whisper them in the low sonic zone of the audio landscape...I'm sure Roger will like this task. You may have to play it backwards to hear it...it will be a fun game for both of us.

    Estimated delivery: Mar 2013
