i heard about you through Andrew Birds album "Andrew Bird & The Mysterious Production of Eggs", and I just wanted to tell that you did lovely in that! I have been recommending lure the fox to a couple of my friends...the way you play the piano is so refreshing! But, my favorite song of yours is by far "Ransom". I love the way you hold your notes just a tad longer in it. Believe me, your voice is like (scuze me fer sayin this cliche statement, haha) "one of a kind."
Hope your holidays are filled with love,
Christopher Graham <3
oh, btw- thought you might like to see some music I write?
Hadn't heard shit (yours, maybe generally) since that Lure the Fox EP way back in Duluth sometime...who knows when? But I really enjoy the Big Star stuff.
Hey, great show at the Doug Fir last night, Miss! You looked great and sounded fantastic. It was rather quiet in there... the bartender said "welcome to Sunday!" so I guess that's de riguere? Thanks for stopping through. Portland hearts you back!
Hey! I'm playing a show tonight at the 400 bar in Minneapolis. I'm playing with Martin Devaney, Consolation Champ, and Joey Ryan Doors are at 8 pm. I hope you can make it.
