My Mom named me Kathleen Marie when I was born. That was in Dorchester, Massachusetts in the waning moments of the 1960's. I spent my youth in that place, and dutifully trudged my way through the better part of 12 years while being trained to become a secretary by The Sisters Of Notre Dame. The universe intervened when I got saved by rock and roll music and toured the world for 10 years with my favorite mates in the band Letters To Cleo. My current life is in Los Angeles, where I have not so much raged against the machine, as I have become a slippery cog in it.
I make records. Sometimes I help other people make records. My friend Michelle and I have a company called Art Is War that does what record companies used to do but do not anymore, which is to cultivate a community of producers, writers and artists where songs get written, music gets recorded and sweet, sweet love gets made all over the world.
I like drinking alcohol but I hate cats. Go figure.

Kay, I've been meaning to send you a message for a while, so my apologies for not thanking you sooner for the signed CD. When LTC played the reunion show in Boston, we couldn't make it up to MA from FL to see, so our buddy JP snagged one for us- You were nice enough to sign it "To Brant & Heather! Ha Ha!" That was great! Love it! Thanks to the guys, too!
