Sounds Like
The inside of you. Not like in the gross, morbid way....more like if you listened really hard to the voice beyond all the noise in your head. That's the goal anyway.....to be so utterly honest and raw, that we touch on the elemental human nature and the struggle to define it. Also its kinda catchy with a good beat.
So I thought I would just stop by and tell you how AmaZing you are!!! I saw you play for the first time at Earthday last weekend and now im hooked :) Your talent is endless and your free spirit is Undeniably contagious.
I bought your cd and have been listening to it every since! Although I have my Favs there is not one song on there that I dont like, and thats RARE!!!! Priceless!!
