Namoli Brennet and possibly some nameless celestial forces that keep passing along the good ideas.
Influences
Train noises, barking dogs, squeaky bicycles, etc.
Sounds Like
The distant whisper of a thousand ideas. Or, Patti Griffin meets Tom Waits. But then, more importantly, what happens AFTER they meet? Nobody ever asks those questions in a soundbite like this. Will there be a second date, were there sparks, etc, are they even compatible? By the way, THIS is what I sound like.
Bio schmio. I prefer to use this space to say that I love writing and performing music more than anything in this whole wide world. I love words, I love the way they fit together and sometimes don't. I love staying up til 3 in the morning cause a song just wants to be born now, tonight, is buzzing like a hummingbird in the periphery of my awareness. I love music and the mysterious ways in which it makes sense of intangible things. I love the hearing of things that exist in some unknown beautiful dimension, and I love being the one who gets to pull them down like tufts of cotton candy and deliver them to the here and now. I love being the radio antenna for some station in Bum-Fuck Eternity, commercial-free, all-music-all-the-time. The most profound thing I've read recently is from Osho, a somewhat crazed and unorthodox being who said: "The biggest mistake you can make is to leave this life without having discovered your authentic self." The most profound thing I've experienced lately is that this is in fact true.
We could have used you tonight on the pigeon rescue. Yep - another raccoon in the pigeon loft. Robin grabbed a pole and flashlight from the garage. The little guy wouldn't budge. I offered to get the Swiffer. She laughed. But I have to say - the pole just didn't work as well.

Hi Namoli! It was awesome to hear you at Milwaukee Pride and to jam at the hotel. What a riot! It was great to see you in Madison, too! I hope your trip to Hayward went well. It's really nice up there. The universe has blessed you with wonderful gifts. I'm so glad you decided to share them with the world. Your talents, spirit and bravery really touched me. I'm so grateful our paths have crossed. I love your music and the person you are. What if we are stars?! You are certainly a bright shining one! Big teddy bear hugs from Mad-city
Had to drop by and say thank you for last night in Milwaukee Namoli. I found your songs and playing mesmerizing and inspiring. I'm so very happy we got to meet, connect and jam. It was a treat I won't soon forget. Hugs from Canada andy

Catching up on your blogs, thanks for making me laugh as always. I'm playing Felicia's in September. Maybe I'll cover Ithaca while there. Hope to see you in 08! xo
