Rocker librarian

About Me

I want to ROCK but I ain't got no band!!!

WOODY'S A GIRL
is Trisha Farnan: a girl, an acoustic guitar, a pick and a 4 track. She keeps her song tabs in a Beverly Hills 90210 folder. She's a 27 year old librarian whose love of rock 'n roll has never been a secret. She's got big plans, namely to buy herself a beautiful electric guitar with which she will attempt to do her songs more justice. At present her sound is all acoustic, although harmonies have been spotted.
With an ever-expanding collection of songs about the good the bad and the ugly, WAG shows no sign of laying down her guitar anytime soon.

New oldie

"Storyteller" - wrote it back in 2005 I think. One of the very first.Only just recorded it "properly" (i.e. with something other than my computer's in-built sound recorder and my $20 headset).Overdone...

The A-Z of WAG songs

I started out my music-writing shenanigans with a rather bizarre goal in mind: to have a song title for every letter of the alphabet. It wasn't enough, however, to simply have the title; there had to ...

Digital mixxa in the house

Good ole dad. He's lent me his digital mixer now, and the most tracks I've laid down in one go so far is 6. Not bad, not bad, but come on! It can be so much better!I have visions of 28-track songs tha...

What a difference a fuck-off busy road makes

Many of my recordings appear to have their own unique sounds, because of where I've been sitting when I've recorded them. In the latest songs you can hear strains of Winterfold Road, which sounds jus...

The last of 2007

Before and after Christmas I recorded quite a few more songs, about 12 actually. Some of them were really old ones that I had never recorded properly before. I sometimes had to force myself to record ...

Sub-par audio quality

That's how I'd categorise the two newest tracks up there. One of them was written on Sunday in a hungover and bedazzled haze, and recorded on the same day. Then I re-recorded it on Monday night. The ...

The current songs

I have just added some new songs, and so here I'll say a little something about the 5 songs that are up on this page at present:Waxing Waning - I really do quite like this song. I reckon it shimmers. ...

Four new tapes

I'm pretty excited 'cause I received my four brand new SA-90s in the mail, so now I have 45 mins x 4 of recording space! I've already done one song. Dad said, "You don't waste any time do you?"Once ag...

Strike the Colours (a little plug)

I just thought I would mention that Strike the Colours are bringing out a new album. It comes out TOMORROW, June 18th. I highly recommend this group, they are fantastic. Beautiful music. They are in ...
