Urban Folk & thrilling trends

to share any space with martha wainwright is thrilling (it's a lovely trend, sharing cyberspaces- see last entry), especially since my co-producer Wayne Miller's band Train Go Sorry is on there, TOO!

Monday's Austin Music Minute

I went to KUT's website for some contact information and was caught off guard by what I thought must be a hallucination, so I took a screen shot.


To be listed anywhere on the same page as Kelly Willis and Ruthie Foster and be featured on the Austin Music Minute is fabulous.

there is a chocolate bar melted into the floorboard of my car.

(for the record, it wasn't even my chocolate bar. though it's fair to say that now it is.)
