EKB recorded Paint My Heart White at 800 East Studios in a remarkable six days, where producer/ aritist Clay Cook engineered,
mixed, and performed on what he calls “a dark Joni Mitchell album”. Special guests who added their talented voices to the album
include: Adrianne, Nate Borofsky (of Girlyman), Vanessa Olivarez, Nicholas Niespodziani and Mark Cobb (of Y-O-U), and Shawn Mullins.
Born in a small town Ringgold, Georgia, Emily Kate Boyd got her first try at live
performance in the living rooms and cafes of neighboring Chattanooga, Tennessee.
Following her move to Atlanta, EKB recorded Wonder EP in 2006 with producer and songwriter Molly Bancroft. Bancroft and Boyd co-wrote Red Dirt Diaries that same year.

They found in his chest a lamp of roses and a moon And he thrown dead upon the stones. In his pocket they found a few piastres, A box of matches, a travel pass, And tattoo marks upon his young arm.
His mother missed him, Mourned him year after year. Boxthorn sprouted in his eyes And darkness thickened.
When his brother grew up And went looking for work in the city’s markets They put him in prison: He carried no travel pass. All he carried in the streets was a box of garbage And other boxes.
So, children of my country, Thus did the moon die.
~Mahmoud Darwish (Palestinian) (translated from Arabic by Denys Johnson-Davies)

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?

I know you're in NYC, which doesn't really make you any closer or farther away from me. BUT...I'll be headed back home for a visit this summer. When you planning on crossing over that Mason Dixon Line again?
