Someone who's trying desperately to cover up her weak guitar skills with witty lyrics.
I started playing guitar and writing songs at age 15... my subject matter has changed dramatically since then, but my basic goal hasn't. I play/write for fun, and although I enjoy performing I still can most often be found singing in my bathrobe rather than in public.
Thanks for supporting my music.
I'm trying out a new promotion and I need your help! I have a way for you to get a free song from me and share it with your friends at the same time! Here's an MP3 Postcard. It's for my song "She Walks Away”.
Check out the postcard, and listen to the track. You can download it for free! All you need to do is send this postcard to 3 of your friends that you think would like my music. I hope you love it and, once again, thanks for supporting indie music!!

Since you're asking for comparisons... I'm hearing Kelly-Willis-esque stylings. Though the beginning of B&B reminds me of Ani DiFranco when she's doing her sweet voice.
Nice job! WHAT I would do for a decent singing voice. :)
