   About vanessa boyd
See www.vanessaboyd.com for show listings. Or email me at vanessa@vanessaboyd.com and tell me what cities you'd like to know about, as I'm no longer maintaining the myspace calendar.

Guitar, Uke, Hajhuj, Synth.

I perform, write, create, spurt, expunge, generate, expand, renew and decline things musical.

Then there's the visual side of things.

And ideas.

ps. i list actual start times for shows, as they've been given to me at any rate. v.

VANESSA BOYD & THE YES MEN: Hunger
Bonjour. Moi, j'ecris, je depense les temps sur l'art et la musique. Il y a longtemps depuis j'ai habite a Lille, France et Rabat, Maroc et parle ou ecris en Francais, mais je l'aime beaucoup des langues. La musique est creer avec toute les rhythmes que j'ai entendue pendant mes voyages avec le folk de l'Amerique. L'art, maintenant, viens de ma reaction a l'inequalite entre les hommes et les femmes en societe. J'espere que tu aime les deux. Merci! Salam Alakum wa Chokran!
