Hello Everyone! I play fiddle and sing in a band called Nickel Creek and am so happy to finally have my own, personal, music site! Thanks to all of you who have been bugging me about this for so long, and extra special thanks to my friend for succumbing my harassments and setting up this myspace page for me.
For a while now I've been recording rather nice demo versions of songs I like for a proper solo record, and many of them have grown from baby, to teen-age tracks. Because of Nickel Creek's relentless recording and touring schedules over the years, however, no songs have quite grown-up, as of yet. But just to give you a little idea, I'll be putting tracks up now and again.
With the time at home this winter, I'm very much looking forward to finishing this project of mine, recording and playing shows with friends, going to see some great concerts!
I'll be keeping you posted on the progress in each of these things! x
why did you remove "where will you be?" I loved that song... and if you aren't going to repost it you should put the lyrics in like a blog or something.
btw you are an amazing fiddle player/singer/song writer
Hey, I hadn't looked at your page before only Nickel Creeks. Just want to say your truly amazing and an inspiration. Thx for all the inspiration and music! :)
I was able to hear Mutual Admiration Society's live cover of "Brother Wind" by Tim O'Brian (I think?) and just wanted to say it sounded great! I love that song and your voice makes it that much better. Thank you. I'm still waiting on that cd of yours to come out.
I would like to just take the time to make it known that I am still not quite the same after hearing you sing "tall buildings" at largo on my birthday...
Well that's a bummer. Thanks for letting me know though, and what does this christening consist of? Are you going to break a bottle of champagne against the door and declare it the little room or is there more to it?
Sara, it is torturing me, and others too, no doubt, that you have no current plans to release the cd you recorded earlier this year. Have mercy and at least post a song or two here!
