I have reached no. 7 on the MySpace NEW YORK NEO-SOUL (INDIE LABEL) ARTISTS Chart!
My profile songs DO YOU FEEL IT?, LAND OF THE FREE & SO ALIVE were written (or co-written) by ADAM LEVIN and featured on the recent album A Different Page.
Wendy Boulding (me) is a singer/songwriter/musician, not a great bio writer, although she did write a novel in November called Judy is One of the Five, so she's an author, too. Oh, and a professional astrologer so if you need songs, books or an insightful scan of the sky along with a compassionate and sensitive discussion, contact Wendy.
"I don't understand how this happened. I wanted to be a Soul Train dancer NOT a musician. To quote John Lennon after his quote about Jesus was taken out of context, 'Now it's all THIS!' Can I PLEASE speak to Don Cornelius, he said this was 'all gonna be a stone gas, honey, and its always in party we wish you love, PEACE and SOOUUULLL!!'. No soul train for me."
Studying Jazz in music school nearly killed me (yes, I'm one of those) but I soon realized that I'm not meant to be Bud Powell. I'm a singer/songwriter/musician in that order. It's a good thing that I figured it out just in time to help save the lives of over 1000 children. No joke, I worked for The Songs Of Love Foundation which provides recordings of original songs in every style and every language for children who are chronically ill or have life threatening diseases, free of charge. I was a ditty doctor and "The Sultan of Song". Go to songsoflove.org and give them some money or volunteer your time, especially if you are a self-sufficient songwriter or producer.

There's other stuff but you'll have to keep coming back to see my bio updates as I continue to live my life. One thing I can tell you is that I can't sing the song "What A Wonderful World This Would Be" with the same conviction because I now know everything about science books, since I publish them. OK, I'm running out of clever or I did a while back. Keep coming back, I'll reveal more.
Heck, I'd build a second oval office with an oval couch, 360° bar and wotnot plus seperate exit, a supreme drum riser with all the trimmings and a helipad. For me mistresses and foreign dignitaries that come over to jam! Don't tell me missus! ;)
Just walked by the local gas station here and them prices are damn low all of a sudden 1 Euron and 17 cents for a bucket... I asked the chick behind the counter wot the dillio is and she replies "oh them iranians must feel secure after the O won the election" me says "Worldpeace at last, ...Ozamapower!" :) I wonder how the missus will decorate the white house... hmmm
I'm currently working on a layout design for Red Bull. It's going to cover the landing ramp and take off ramp for some motorcycle daredevil's crazy stunt.

One day as I was meditating, I saw a rusty gutter, and I suddenly felt sad and sorry that it was going bad and rusty. I experienced that life was impermanent. I learned Dharma from that gutter.
-Mae Chi Boonliang, "Women's Buddhism, Buddhism's Women"
Remove the rock from your shoe rather than learn to limp comfortably.

All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.
Hi Wendy, thanky for your friendship! I'm at your site and enjoy to listen to your songs. I like the mixture of warm sounds, expression and groove... Greetings from Germany, Christiane
