   About Kathy Covert Jensen
Music Background . . . I began the gigging life playing piano at a sing-a-long beach bar in North Carolina. From there I went on to playing all kinds of venues for all kinds of folks, including lots of children's programs. Music has brought so many people and experiences into my life that I would have not known otherwise (like crewing on a 108 year old Chesapeake Schooner), and for that I am thankful. My interests include blues, folk, rock, bluegrass, swing, etc . . . These days I am especially drawn towards the ragtime blues and swing of the 30's and 40's. I love to write and my songs come out in as many varied styles as my interests. I released my first CD ‘a little wiser'* in 2000. It is collection of my earlier originals, recorded with some great North Carolina friends. I currently have 3 more projects that I'm working on (in my ever-so-manic way): an old timey piano CD, a children's album and another collection of more current originals. These days I am traveling with my family a great deal so it is challenging to do much gigging or maintain a steady band. But I am very blessed with a great group of talented musician friends to play with when I'm home. Some of us perform regularly at the Ozark Folk Center (ozarkfolkcenter.com), an Arkansas state park dedicated to preserving the traditional music and crafts of the region. * ‘a little wiser' is available for listening or purchase at cdbaby.com/kcj or itunes.com. Personal Info . . . I am married to a fine fellow and between us we have 5 kids (4 that I gave birth to). We have a mountaintop farm in North Central Arkansas surrounded by lots of family. Other interests include growing blueberries, midwifery and building stuff. I especially enjoy carving out trails for hiking and biking and creating meditation spaces. More detailed info will be posted soon at blueberrytunes.com. More sound clips can be heard at itunes or cdbaby.com. ..

Howdy Kathy,
Have ya'll got any snow yet? Those Saint Vitus Dance Band videos are great. When I was a youngster my grandmother used to tell me that I had Saint Vitus Dance! I think it means I can't stay still!
I trust all is well with you and yours.
Peace, Good Things, Denver Twigg

This compendium of illiterations, art, literature and journalism is a compost pile of fermenting illiterati to toss onto the garden of your imagination to further fertilize it to yield a bounty of ideas and free thought. It breaks rules as it does not recognize good grammer in some instances as the final authority over random thought. The words and art herein hopefully fall from an imaginary pinata as delightful and delicious candy.
