Year 3 for me! It's a busy start to my February, so we'll see what I can get done but I'm excited for some 2025 updates including:
-Using a DAW to record demos instead of just voice memo recordings (although I'm sure I'll still do the voice memo thing for efficiency's sake on occasion)
-A new loop pedal I hope to play around with
I am:
Genre-flexible, lover of all things that pull at the heartstrings.
Very much open to collabs
A weaver of melodies
Piano, guitar, ukulele, aux. percussion proficient
Harmonizing is my happy place.

@wynia
Catching up here on comments...thanks much for stopping by "Common" last week! You shouted out the flugelhorn...as far as I know I'm the only one on FAWM! We just uploaded another one last night that features flugel if you want to check out "Everyone Has a First Heartbreak" <3

Thank you @racheleve for sending it! I have forwarded it along to her. She is also a therapist and believes in the power of music to heal and unite.

Thanks for the kind words on "I'm Not The Wrong Color". Interestingly, we both mention that we're not going quietly....DAM STRAIGHT! Hang in there and fight the good fight.

Thanks for your comments on "You and Me". Simple song but it works so even if I'm not a squirrel I guess I found an acorn. ;)

Hey Rachel! For the last week or so I keep thinking I should look up your profile because I hadn’t seen anything of yours on my watchlist. Lo and behold you have a whole oeuvre already!

I would love that! I will mark it for you! Thank you!

Thanks for your comment on "Dear Younger Me". I wasn't sure about that section of the song, so I'm glad to hear you thought it worked.

Hi Rachel and thanks for the wonderful comments on my first song Minstrel Moon. I do love Neil Young and appreciate the comparison. I used guitar and octave mandolin on the song and concertina for the instrumental.

Yes please! I would be honoured if you wanted to add music to my lyrics for Delicious! 🥰

Hi Rachel, Thanks for listening and commenting on my Jaunty Reel, yes that was a harp trying to pretend that it was either Celtic or a hammer dulcimer I don't know which.
