“Affecting and poignant--a different kind of high lonesome...”

"Lyrical and hypnotic, Emily’s performances are a unique combination of Latin American music and the traditional sounds of American Old-Time." Trish Imbrogno, Nightwire
"But as impressive as Pinkerton's musical dexterity is - she plays
guitar, banjo and violin expertly - it pales next to her vocal tone...
...Emotions waver on Pinkerton's vibrations. At times, her voice is the epitome of loneliness, and at others, a portal for the familiarity that only home can bring. She sings about love and war, rejection and homecoming, changing the atmosphere in the room with each breath."
Emily Byrne, The Santiago Times

Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001
Where traditions are not so rare; Sea, country and works scent the air; A multitude of monuments, Planted tubs and patterned pavements.
The longish pedestrian malls; The remnants of defensive walls; Historic buildings are a gauge Of the respect for heritage.
Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; Estuaries guarded by shields; Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; Romantic-ruin go-betweens.
Rivers in parts licked by trees, Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, And crossed by practical delights - Varied spans, forming pleasing sights.
Fine churches headed at Durham; Football kits ad infinitum; Kept castles - one for study; Masonry behind masonry.
And, with moulding-works out that way, It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?
