I'm currently trying to be a musician...apparently it's much harder than it looks...so, now I'm creative in a ton of different ways, meaning marketing or lack thereof and touring and merchandise and all the stuff I used to hope music wasn't...if you know anyone who's looking for music for their independent hit tv series tell them I'm interested. Even selling out is hard to do!
Well, especially for me, cause I talk about things that are difficult to verbalize...and eclipsing meaning to be in the dark of vagary is a feat...
"A Pretty Kind of [off] White", my third album, is for sale, hardcopy, via the paypal/credit card method at www.johannachase.com. The digital option will be available on iTunes pronto.
