Sounds Like
Sounds like:
The soundtrack to a bad dream in which you're falling off a cliff, then you have a very rough landing on some sharp, slippery rocks, so you try to get a grip on the situation but all the rocks just keep sliding right out from under you and you just keep sliding down the cliff until you land, again, briefly, on a steep beach with more sharp, slippery rocks and you keep trying to claw your way back upwards, despite your frostbitten hands, but then you land squarely in the freezing, churning waves of the ocean and the undertow pulls you underwater repeatedly until you just keep breathing in more & more water and you finally cease to struggle and it is only then that you see the large, uprooted, waterlogged, yet still seaworthy spruce tree floating just out of reach, just out of reach.... and at this same moment, you look up suddenly and see the full moon glaring down and you realize how beautiful the night sky can be...
That's what I think my music sounds like. Some people have told me it reminds them of The Cocteau Twins. Hell, I don't know. You tell me. ;)
My name is Krista Ryan.
I primarily play guitar & bass; this is my first solo music project. I've been a musician for as long as I can remember: some of my first memories are of being a kid, playing a plastic ukelele with strings made of rubber bands. I remember trying many different rubber bands, but never quite getting the right sound I wanted.
Not much has changed since then, except that I've graduated from using a plastic ukelele to using electric guitars. I write, record & mix all of my music myself.
Why I'm here: to share my music with like-minded others. About "friend requests": if I sent you a "friend request", it's either because I like your band, or because I think you seem interesting and that you might like my music. I'm not interested in adding people/bands simply to expand my "friends list". Most of my friends are either artists, writers, musicians or other creative types. Please see my friends list and check out their pages, too. I change my "top 24" periodically to keep things interesting. If you're a musician & you're interested in doing a collaboration with me, let me know; I'm always interested in working with new people. This page is maintained entirely by me, so it may take me awhile to get back to you. I'm also a vegan (strict vegetarian). For more information about veganism/vegetarianism and animal rights, please see the pages of some of my vegan/vegetarian friends. Thanks for listening to my music. I just made a music profile on vampirefreaks.com: http://vampirefreaks.com/u/YouLookLikeHelenBlac
