"Ann Marie is a thoroughly trained, dedicated and shining musical
person. I was fortunate to have had the opportunity to have her
in my band. She faced some harrowing musical challenges with
determination, focus, confidence and respect, and she always
delivered gracefully. For a band leader and composer there is no
greater blessing. But the most captivating aspect of her playing is
how her enchanting personality emanates through her fingertips
and into the notes.
On a personal level Ann Marie is smart, charming, funny, considerate,
kind, and deeply empathetic. Her positive persona pierces any dark
cloud that it comes across. It may sound as though I'm gushing and
perhaps waxing on but the truth is, I'm just calling an ace an ace.
Oh, and she also can throw down a mean-ass happy dance.
"Ann Marie Calhoun is one of that rare breed of musicians who
combines special skills in several musical styles and disciplines.
With her early Classical training and award-winning excellence
in American Bluegrass traditions, she brings together Folk, African
and Jazz elements with maturity and poise belying her tender years.
Unlike many of her fiddlin' friends from the Classical world, Ann
Marie has cultivated considerable improvisational abilities but still
retains her music theory and the ability to play set parts and
orchestrations. She has a great ear, is quick to learn and able to
add valuable touches to any composition and arrangement - no
matter what style of music presents itself.
Add to this that she is a swell gal! A really nice person who is
thoughtful, kind, considerate and an asset to any touring or recording
band."
Hello Ann Marie! I'm writing just to let you know I'm watching in this very moment "Where the wild things are" DVD, and god... I'm amazed by how much talent, class and beauty you own! I'm so happy I had the opportunity to see you live some years ago in Milan, but I look forward to see you again! Take care. Paolo
Heeeey, Ann Marie - it’s been a while :) - and how are you, hope things are good, are they?... Listen, I have a favor to ask you, could I? Since my picture won at the monthly level & Round 1, I got nominated for the LongHair Hawtie of the Year. Round 2 (Finals!) ends in a few days and... - was hoping for those 6 votes from you ;)
So... this is where you would cast a vote. Yeah, you do need to get accepted as a friend of www.MySpace.com/OfficialLongHairHawties before you can vote, but they’re nice girls (the hawtie folks), no harm whatsoever :)
