Artist picture
I am a solo musician. I mostly do the girl with guitar thing; acoustic blues is what I usually call it, but the terms acoustic folk or alternative country would do as well. I really only sound like a country artist because my voice has an Oklahoma/Ozarks kinda twang to it, and I do tend to sound a little countryish at times, but these days saying you're a country artist is almost the same thing as saying you're a republican right-wing evangelical southerner, which ain't me! I'm a cynical old hippie living in the country, defying most people's preconceived ideas about what I am.

Lyrics
This is Your Life It's your turn in line, you open your eyes, and this is your life And what if, what if, this is it and there's no more? Without the threat of hell, the promise of heaven Would it make you not want to go on living? We hang onto our identities, we call them our souls, But you might not want that kind of burden with you when you go. Yes I believe in great mysteries, mysteries so great that we may never know them Maybe in the end we'll see it all, maybe in the end we'll see how nothing matters It's your turn in line, you open your eyes, and this is your life, And many like you will come and many have gone before Don't you owe it to them to leave something behind that they can use, Like a good example, or a good habit. Maybe in the end you do more than you suppose, maybe the way you do things really matters. Why waste time waiting for the time? And is there any time after this time, I don't know. Yes, I believe in great miracles, don't you believe in the miracle of your life? And here is the threat of hell, the promise of heaven, side by side. We are the dream of our ancestors, maybe the earth is dreaming us tonight. We are the dream of our ancestors, maybe the stars are dreaming us.
