Shan't bore with a huge list because it IS huge...but I know I cannot live without: Mendelssohn, Camille Saint-Saens, Bowie, Lou Reed, Iggy Pop, Patti Smith, Hendrix, all things Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Brian Eno, Jeff Beck, Johnny Cash, Neil Young, Jeff Buckley, Robyn Hitchcock, PJ Harvey, Queens of The Stone Age...
Sleeps Six is waking up again...in time for the next album, titled "Late Enough" due in 2009.
Roots based, honest and unique songwriting...culled from years of living, loss, and learning.
Founded by Pauline Groen, this is a band with depth. Groen's ear for evocative melodies serves up another collection of songwriting, following up the first album, titled "Nacre". Groen also performs all guitar tracks on the current upcoming album, with Craig O'Neil guesting on guitar solos in "Breathe" and "What Do You Mean".
Sev Micron's 7 years of drumming with Tulpa, amongst other projects, gives over to the essential, honest sound the songs have been looking for.
Brilliantfish has also been crucial to the makeup of Sleeps Six, performing all drum tracks on "Nacre" and also appearing on the upcoming "Late Enough" album. A vast array of notable project involvements on BF's resume...all adding up to a continuing, growing artist Sleeps Six is lucky to have on board.
Marc Ganetakos has played/written/performed with a noteworthy cast of musicians, including Nelly Furtado, along with having shared the stage with The Tea Party, Spirit of the West, Alanis Morissette, and brings world class guitar mastery into the project's live show.
Chris Bottomley, former bassist for Tulpa and currently heading his own project Brainfudge, contributed his solid talent on all tracks for the upcoming "Late Enough" album.
Jim Field, while known as guitarist for Rhea's Obsession as well as his current project Spacenoiz, is on bass for Sleeps Six's live show, and it's like he never left his first instrument...
Watch for upcoming show announcements this Spring/Summer...
I haven't been by in a while! You ready for the Thanksgiving holidays?! I'll be visiting relatives and being Thankful!
Got some new BLOGS posted up on my site about the NEW ReaLiTy ShoW, names on my guitar for $10 and racing dirtbikes! http://www.heather-williams.com/blog
Believe me, I would have put it off forever if I wasn't worried that the dust bunnies were developing consciousness and planning on overthrowing the studio. ;)
Pauline, You've got a great sound, melodic hooks all over the place, lyrics with an edge and all delivered with such a mesmerizing voice. A sweet combination of the complex and the simple, and that's a good one-two punch. I'll be passing the word on to my friends. Looking forward to hearing more.
Hey, good hearing from. I'm doing fine. Started some new recordings in august and then got sidetracked (untracked? not enough tracked?) a bit. Busy as usual.
Hi Pauline, Its been so long! How Torontos treating all of you ? Hope youre alls doing good and right for you! Sleep Six always remains good to listen to... Kisses

Hi Pauline!!!thank you very much...I'm well and hope all is well with you too. I'm having a beautiful summer full of sun here in Italy...now I'm in a little town near Genoa, to my mother...the town is really near the sea and the beach, so I can go to the beach every day. How's going your music? are you composing new beautiful songs? thanks a lot my dear...a big big hug to you...have a great summer!!! tizzy
