My lovely family of friends. My friendly loving family. My teachers, witting and unwitting. My cats. Everybody else's cats. The cats to whom nobody belongs. My dreams. Your dreams. The positions of the planets. The phases of the moon. The musicality of String Theory. Train whistles late at night. Flowers, before, during and after they bloom. Trees, full out in summer, naked in winter. Rocks. Bugs. Rain. Light. Love. Love. Love. Did I say Love? The persistence of hope. Oh, and choklit. And then there's the coffee....
And these fine folks, among many others, have all participated in the reorganization of my musical DNA....

CYNDI'S BIO :: Cyndi Craven started playing guitar—well, she thought the baritone ukulele her dad got her was a guitar—when she was six years old. By the time she turned eleven and realized the uke was in fact not a guitar, she gave all the money she’d been saving all her life to the man at the local record store who took a six-string guitar down off the wall, put it in a pasteboard case, and let her walk out with it. It broke the bank and started a career. Forty years later, Cyndi is still happily singing, playing, performing, and writing songs. She sees absolutely no reason to stop now. And she’s just started a new recording project! Find out more and get on her mailing list at cyndicraven.com.

Hey there, Here's one from left field... Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat? A while back I came across some very disturbing information, which inspired me to make this video: Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4 Both artistic (ensure you've good enough sound to enjoy the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice. Though the source materials are somewhat aged, the fundamentals remain relevant today. I encourage all to visit the YouTube web page above to learn more (Show your support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly re-post and circulate as widely as possible. Help to raise awareness. Say have you checked out my web site (http://www.faberoptime.com) recently? Take care and keep in touch. Best, Faber. "Just a guy trying to make the world a better place."

well, it has been a long and winding road, and an even longer time coming, but my debut CD, I Remember, is FINALLY HERE!!! YAY!!!!!
to celebrate, American HeartBeat Records(tm) has arranged a FREE DOWNLOAD of Now Is The Time in exchange for a valid email address. Now Is The Time is a brand new, upbeat song I wrote: we are living in turbulent times. suddenly it is okay to be greedy and heartless? no way! a song of hope for our future, a new vision of America and the world.
we have a bunch of exciting things planned to kick this whole thing off, and we need to get a better picture of who our friends are, so the FREE DOWNLOAD form will ask you a few questions, like, what is your country and nearest major city. it all takes maybe 15 seconds.
anyhoo, the FREE DOWNLOAD, and the FUN, begins at www.JAETCHISON.com
I look forward to getting to know you a little better, and I thank you SO VERY MUCH for your friendship and support!
please tell your friends about JAETCHISON.com, and ask them to sign up for the email list, too! FUN things are coming up!!
