   About ayla nereo

Ayla Nereo came from the hills of Sonoma County, a child grown on blackberries and books. The lines of vision and waves of hearing brushed her shoulder one day, and it started to come out as music.

Ayla and brother Davyd (of That Blasted Hound) play together as Beatbeat Whisper.

Keep an eye to the sky and an ear to the sounds around... there is a revolution of conscious hearing, a casting-off of bitter judgement, and it's in your eyes.

Hi Ayla. It's so nice to be back on MySpace and have you back on my friends list. I wanted to hear your songs again. "Lulu" reminds me of a Gypsy girl's name. "Lulugee" means flower, but I recently learned the Gypsy word for a flower comes from the Greek language.

Anyway... You are an inspiration to me. I have a few more song ideas I'm working on and you are an encouragement... just by being who you are out there singing those songs.

Perhaps sometime I'll be there in person as you sing for us. Until such time, take care and be well. I wish you good health and many blessings.

Auntie Ayla! Thank you so much for the birthday wishes, it means a lot. I think around this time last year would be the time in which I got locked out of my room and you were my savior in letting me back in. I hope that your post-grad life is going well. I know its an awful question, but what are you thinking about doing? Anyways this is getting long, but to give you a little update, I'm starting berkeley in the fall and want to be a medical anthropologist. Cause they're cool cats. Stay awesome Ayla, I have very fond memories of you.
Yours,
Ashveer

a most epic performance yesterday. i think you might have just changed some people's realities. for some folks, there was the day before they heard ayla nereo play and the lifetime after.

ayla nereo is a defining moment. truth.
