Beautifully Mad recalls the beauty of James Taylor, some honey from KD Lang, a lyrical spice of Cohen washed down with some Waits-like humour. An acoustic candle that flickers between Folk and the silhouette of Jazz.
Hi friends, Beautifully Mad have released a new song entitled Billy's Dream
I know! And I keep thinking of artists I've left off the list who have been major inspirations... and, of course, that list just keeps growing. This social networking 'thing' is doing my head in on some levels, and totally enjoyable on others. eg - 1. What on earth can I twitter that would be genuinely interesting to anyone else? 2. If millions can successfully navigate their way through and custom design their (insert just about any major social networking site here) pages, why am I so confused? but also, 3. Hey, check out these amazing artists I have discovered - yourselves very much included - who are enthusiastic and inspiring and DOING IT - making music and getting out there and playing it and making friends along the way. See you on the other site.... Sarah
Hi guys, thank you so much for your friendship, -llll-love your moody, cruizy music, beautiful pictures, and very snazzy site, -gorgeous! Jana my little girl is in Vietnam, having an exhilarating time... -she only had the best things to say about you...:) Will get one of your CDs asap, and hope to catch you live one day, and: if ever you need that bubble bath sound of a violin... Cheers! Inge
hey lovelies. So there was a radio documentary on my music that aired tonight. Amongst many a thing mentioned you guys and played Is That Jazz (in my own terrible piano way). Getting excellent feedback. It'll be available on podcast very soon - I'll keep you posted!
Hi, I'm back in Belfast and listened to your songs, all I can say is fantastic!! 'Is that jazz' took me back to my youth when I would listen to jazz sessions on a transistor radio at night on radio 2. 'Give greed a chance' is my favourite. Thanks lads. joe
Thanks for the friend request. Im in an internet cafe in Spain and the headphones arent working. Ill get a listen to your music when I get home next week. joe
Thank you so much for the friend request. The honor is mine and I agree, Luka Bloom is an extremely talented artist. Your song, "Billy's Dream" is beautifully written and a very sweet music composition (I'm listening to it right now). I look forward to listening to more of your music. I wish you all the best in your creative endeavors. May the messages in your music be heard from all corners of the earth. Make it known to the unknown!!

Met a guy called Walter whose giving a talk at Merimbula on Aug 1st who says woody trees produce sugars in their stomata(leaf cavities) and this in turn creates bacteria. when that bacteria is released it draws to it dust, pollen particles etc & MAKES RAIN. we only need three % cloud cover to save the planet - if we save whats left & if everyone planted 10 trees for the next ten years we would xxx
