Little Darlings,
Once again, down in the holler I am. Been doin’ some serious sittin’ on the stoop like a good mountain-chick pickin’ away at at my banjo. (altho, I’ve still got a lonnnng way to go in the banjo department…) Have also been working so incredibly hard at learning Bach’s Cello suite no. 1 in G major on guitar (but I’m a delinquent and I play it in D) which I’ve been studying for possible inclusion on my currently gestating NEW album… (Shhhh, don’t tell.) I’ve got a local gig tonight at the Smokehouse Winery -source of the supremely delicious Smokehouse honey mead I’ve become famous for toting around the world with me… Yum-a-rama. . All is delightful in the glorious Shenandoahs and I’m remembering why it is so crucial for me to get back to nature. And so far I’ve only found two snakes in my bed: The first, dropped into my lap by a proud kitten named Evilina. The second fell from the ceiling onto my HEAD while I was curled up in bed watching Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman DVDs on my laptop minding my own business…. (Good thing I’m a toughy.)
I’m here for a few more days and then up up up and away to northern Michigan where my summer festival season officially beginneth at Blissfest. Check out the Shows page for my whole summer lineup. Hope to see all y’all out there…
till then, xo
