Sounds Like"inspiring in a celebrational way"

"warm and snuggly"

"beautiful and sweet, like warm hot-chocolate with cinnamon."

"warm breath on your neck on crisp winter days, engulfing blankets, smiling stars, tight embraces & far away stolen glances."

"You are like GINGER SHERBET to us! . . . refreshingly splendid, like shimmering golden trout hidden under sunken logs!"

"crisp. . . like fresh air after a silent snow."

Little Things You Might Not Know About Autumn Sky (Me)

1. My name is Autumn Sky. That's my first and my middle name. I was named after the sky in October, when I was born (on the 10th.) My parents were very romantic, and also hippies. They aren't so hippy anymore, but I still love my name. I couldn't imagine being anyone else.

2. I am twenty years young. I homeschooled most of my life (except for two and a half years of high school, in which period of time we moved so much I went to four different ones,) and got bored of it all at seventeen. I graduated high school and went to college, where I studied as a music and jazz voice major.

3. I used to have a terrible fear of singing in public. Singing is extremely personal to me...there's no instrument to blame when you hit a bum note. Summer Camp and leading worship in youth group cured me of my stage fright.

4. I have six little brothers and sisters. Most of them are much taller than I am.

5. I am a natural blonde, it comes from my Danish side. I have not seen that haircolor for at least five years now.

6. My eyes change color; they are either green or blue, depending on the weather, what I'm wearing, and my mood.

7. I used to live on an old hippy commune in Mendocino, CA, when it was being used as a prayer retreat. My parents were the caretakers. It was a little bit like living in The Shire. We had sheep, ducks, rabbits, and a pig named Maybelline.

8. I am a cat person, but I have also had pet june bugs, rabbits, chickens, and birds.

9. I wanted to be an author and an artist growing up. I still paint, but not professionally anymore. Nowadays my writing is all in my songs.

10. I love reading about the history of ancient civilizations. The past is so thrilling to me. I practically live in the library. That reminds me...gotta return some books tomorrow.

11. My favorite movies are classic movies and arsty, indie films. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Roman Holiday are on my top ten.

12. I have found love, and I recognize that I am very lucky.

13. I am related to the first pirate hung on Lake Michigan. If you count the belief that pirating is inherited through blood, this makes me a pirate. Avast ye!

14. I play a lot of instruments, but I don't play them all on stage. There's not enough time to practice them all, so I focus on just a few. The rest are just for me to have fun with. The number is around 14, but honestly, when you're a musician, things are pretty easy to pick up. People seem to make a big deal out of it, but it's not actually that exciting.

15. I taught myself to play everything that I play by myself, except for the violin.

16. I eat frozen peas.

17. I faint when I'm very badly frightened--just pass out flat on the floor. And yes, it is incredibly mortifying. It's never as graceful as you see in the movies, and sometime's you're on a stepladder when it happens. Bad news all around.

18. Scary movies give me nightmares, and I've sworn them off.

19. I like to sew and shop for vintage clothes that I can alter. I want to make a quilt.

20. Someday I'd like to teach little children how to sing and play instruments.

21. I own two pairs of pants and a couple of shorts...I don't feel like myself without a dress or a skirt. I am very girly, and I love to be flirty and feminine. Being a girl is a blast and I enjoy every second of it.

22. I am a firm believer in treating everyone with respect and kindness, and because I'm such a happy-go-lucky person, I find that this comes easily to me. Sadly, sometimes this is also my biggest flaw, as a lot of the world doesn't agree with my outlook, and it can be disappointing to not recieve respect and kindness back. But it's worth it in the end...love is always worth it. Nothing in this world worth fighting for is easy.

23. I used to be a scottish highland dancer. I had beautiful plaid skirts and ghillies, and I miss it.

24. I absolutely love hearing what you guys have to say about my music. Talking to you is always the highlight of my day. It makes me feel so sentimental when I'm told my music has touched someone. I so deeply want to share my love of music with people...when I'm able to, I feel like I could fly.

25. I love to cook and bake, lately I've really been wanting to try out cupcakes. Cupcakes are amazing!

"Autumn Sky...has a lot of potential to be one of Northern California's break out folk artists as Joanna Newsome, Vetiver and Devendra Banhart have done in the past. More than likely the only reason Autumn has not been signed to a top indie label is geography."

- PerfSpot.com


"Whether crooning about a budding romance or a broken heart, Autumn Sky’s sparkling melodies resonate long after the final notes die down."< br />
- Catherine Foss, Submerge Magazine


"Then something unusual happens: as Sky begins to strum and sing, the audience chatter instantly stops. Adults, teens and toddlers are all held in rapt attention as Sky’s pitch-perfect voice fills the room. (Her) voice is on par with Joanna Newsome’s poetic warble, Chan Marshall without the baggage and Jolie Holland, minus the Vaudevillian rain clouds."

- Tony King, Midtown Monthly

"...her refreshing delivery, her husky alto and, yes, her whimsical lyrics – composed of the stuff of growing up – are inspiring loving loyalty from fans and patrons."

I completely agree! Due to school and work, I haven't been getting out as much as I'd like (which is funny because now that I have a job, I actually have money to go out). How have you been?

A song i wrote for my ex, i thought i share it with you

hope u like it, there's nothing more beautiful than to share a feeling..

like an angel
with eyes of desire,
sweet deceit and full of love
smile of sun to set
tears of a warm-felt heart
an and
empty joyless expression
when she sad, so out of context
you can even tell what she wants
or even wonder whatever it was that i did wrong
it sucks to be looked at, that way
a black hole in her pupils , with the certainty that is over
and there's no more of us
no more you and me

no more you
no more me

love is gone with no apology or a kiss
now i am lonely
here in this world , which roams around me
and not the other way around
here in this place is where the emptiness eats me up
corners me up to the wall and and lets me beat myself up about evetthing
to cry
to hurt myself
to find the excuse to get fucked up
and ruin the times i spent without drugs
ruin my life with the biggest cause my heart could think of
loosing you baby,, loosing my angel
loosing what i once held next to my heart and thought
it was just as precious as the wind and just as lovely as breathing in love
breathing in yours
you -your unconditional love,

so here i pour my heart today
and see how much i cannot forget you
so u can see , that i love you with all of my heart
and still do,
i am waiting to die baby, i am waiting
i am not alive if is not with you my love
i am not ,,i just know i am not
