About Me

Simkha Blank is an acoustic, lo-fi(ish) artist from Washington DC who is in the process of recording her first EP on her newly formed label, Pockabee Records. She is currently in a state of artistic and emotional paralysis, and is basically unable to do anything other than eat, sleep, and (maybe) go to work once in a while. This has now persisted for several weeks. When it lifts, she will hopefully have the energy to continue with her various musical projects. Until then, sit tight. The EP, tentatively titled "The Remnants of Royalty," is due out sometime in March of 2007. Simkha mostly works as a solo artist (she and almost everyone she's ever tried to work with prefer it that way), but there may be a possible collaboration in the works for a track on the EP or later release. Stay tuned.
