Elephants

About Me

I started playing music at a very young age. I sang in different bands like Dandelion, The white owl blues federation and bella donna (nachtschade). I still sing in a bluesband called trippin norton and an experimental band called HONEYDRIPPED PUSSY. During singing in those bands I started writing my own stuff, but beeing insecure about putting myself out there I never finished anything.. I'm takin a shot at it now.. I hope you enjoy, I sure do enjoy playing, but I'm not an entertainer. When I play, live, in my room or on the streets, I do it for myself. Sounds selfish, I know, but it's my world, my therapy.. Enjoy your stay ^^.08/06/07: New recordings!!! Recorded by Mojo from The Tubs. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! They're all from my "Album" (ahum..) "Elephants". I called it elephants because of my feminist roots. I'm not a menhater, but I consider myself to be a free and independant woman.2008: A new year, a new demo: I've recorded a new demo with REINHARD ROELANDTS (www.myspace.com/srambiepbopper -- Check out his music.. genious and wicked!). THANK YOU!!! The demo contains 2 new selfwritten songs "Dramaqueen Blues" and "No Worries", 1 cover from the Merle And Mabel "The Big Here And Now" and one old selfwritten song "My Friend/ My lover" If you would like to have one just let me know!
