....Music gives me more joy than anything else in life. It's a constant. To quote Rickie Lee Jones: "Singing gives me worth among strangers."
I've been privileged to work with some wonderful musicians Mo Foster, Joolz Holland, Pino Palladino, Frank Ricotta, Mark Lockheart, Chris Marshall, Andrew Ingram, Chris Rodel, Debbie Cassell, Martin Ansell and Paul Castle. I thank them all for the honour of playing with them and the inspiration and encouragement they give me.
If we're still in London by then, the Chelsea vintage fair sounds AMAZING! (It's Jen, not Dave... Can you tell?!) How are we not in your top friends AK? Big love to Aussie (Almost Uncle Steve... AUS! I'm trying it out...) xxxxx
Thank you for the blog comment. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Just played a gig with Andy in Witney. It was such a laugh. Maybe we should do one all together....
Hey cheers for the friendship, check my page if you're interested in recording, mixing or mastering - top mics, great rooms, low rates. Keep up the good work :)
Thanks for the blog comments Karen...MySpace have erased them somehow but there we are. Heard it was good in Italy... laughed so much about that thing about "The animal section in the hold of the Ryanair jet" . Priceless. x
Hi Karen (and Andy) thanks for the show and the great night out after! Shame Belluno closes too early, I could have partied with you guys til dawn! see you again soon I hope, Nick.
Hiya Karen, I just went on to your space to listen to "Searching For The Good". The loveliness of that vocal beguiled me into thinking there wasn't so much there. It's another great song.
Hi Karen, I really like your songs! Thank you for the add :) Take a look at my video of The Writing on the Wall from my acoustic album, Beyond the Blues. Quote from the wall: ‘The wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly’. Thanks again, Steve
Just listened to "Searching For The Good" Karen. It is lovely. What a wonderful vocal.They will sign you in the end if they aren't completely without any feeling.
