she sits alone she thinks she sparks she plays she writes she sings she records she tickles the ivories from time to time she tokes she watches she snuggles a lot in bed she wails she screams she growls she squeeks and she whips it into an aria she listens to all she takes pinches of this and that and rolls it into this:)
ps she doesn't like to use punctuation or make much sense.Band/artist history
i was born, apparently I sang in the the womb - they could hear squeeks from time to time!! and carried on till i can but now sometimes its not always singing its just what comes. I don't believe in history or herstory its whats happening now that matters.Have you performed in front of an audience?everynight, day (not early) in my room to my toys and dogs before they walk away. I'm currently in 2 cover bands- not my thing but I need the cash and am looking for solo gigs I need to move from the middle of the countryside first maybe and get a godamn driving license! I love performing though whatever I'm singing I go mad many special moments but hopefully there will be lots more...lots.
