with Doug Logan <br /><br />and the Kelly Park Band

Singer/songwriter Kathy Moxham writes in a variety of genres ranging from folk, blues, jazz, country and R&B. She loves the blues, the sounds of the Rolling Stones and thinks that Jimmy Buffett is a wordsmith genius. She's very complex. She also sings and plays the guitar. Imagine that!

Doug Logan heard Kathy's song "Telltale Lines" and said that he could play an accompaniment to it. He dreamed one up in about a minute. It was perfect so the two lovebirds have been collaborating ever since. Doug is a guitarist first and foremost. His expertise is apparent and his touches are tasteful and beautiful. The woven combination of sounds is enchanting. On the side, Doug also plays lead guitar for Time to Confess and the Red Hot Rhythm Devils, San Francisco’s hottest blues bands.

Story behind the song

[description of the song]
The Incredible Mr Limpid starts off life as a chorus girl rather than Barney Fife...

[how the song got started]
My sister, Patty, gave me a flat, painted tin ornament.  It's a mermaid.  She has big green eyes and long brown hair and a little guitar.  Since the song, Patty has sent me other mermaids, as well.  Ornaments and stickers.  Keep those mermaids comin'!  I lov'em.

[about the recording]
This song always reminds me of Larry Loo when I sing it because it is a favorite of his, and I played it about 1000 times in a home recording so I was Loo Loo after that.  

Today we recorded at Garth's studio, and this is what you hear here.  

Doug Logan - Rhythm Guitar, ukelele, lead guitar

Kathy Moxham - Vocals and ukelele

Engineered by Garth Webber at Red Rooster Studios.

[a little more information]
If the song is unclear to you, I'll explain...she is actually from Memphis, Tennessee.
