I remember when I first heard Sinéad O'Connor sing. Being close in age, her raw beautiful voice and lyrics changed me, opened my heart, my mind, my innocence as a song-maker. I have always been inspired by her vulnerable bravery to be herself, to take the hard road, and to speak out in a hardened consumerist music industry. Feels bittersweet to bring in some of her music here. May her creative spirit continue to speak to hearts and minds as she moves into the realm of ancestry.
There's a rather raw recording of a new song (an acapella version without harmony) from me here too, in part in honor of Sinéad's beautiful life on Earth. This mix is for Reflective Morning Movement Day 5 of 6, Friday July 28th.
More new music from me will soon be shared on Bandcamp soon.

Thank you to all who've listened to this one in particular. This one revealed something that's been wishing to emerge for some time now. It represents a multidimension, across time and space. One that considers a present and future overlay of instruments and voice for anyone listening or moving with this. That you yourself, wherever you are might sing, harmonize, drum or play add your own creativity to in the moment. I'd love to hear from anyone who might do that. It is a movement meditation of voice, body, spirit, and soul. Hmmm... fun to articulate this a bit.
Touching tribute Jody as I spiral dance barefoot in dewy sun kissed grace. Thank you
thank you for joining in Aurora! This one lent itself to a "soul touch" session including Bazz, vocal harmony, and singing bowls...so delicious.
