"love me like a rock"

About Me

Check out the Radio Bean Honky Tonk Town Meeting Tuesday Crew... leader Brett Hughes with killer team of Tyler Bolles (bass), Lowell Thompson (acoustic guitar), Mark Spencer (electric guitar and lap steel), Russ Lawton (drums), Marie Claire (piano) and more! what a blast! This was REALLY entertaining! My first utube endeavor, too...For the love of music... and always working on it. I am aiming to have some songs posted by the end of April... very rough stuff but true.So much to do as a housewife... mother and farm wife... every day is a blessing! BUT... I gotta figure out this recording stuff... so thank you for being patient... I hope to have some music to share soon.
I publish a small newspaper called Rural Route Today out of my home in Vermont... 3,000 copies are printed at DenPubs in the Adirondacks. Volunteers are needed--writers, photographers, ad salespeople--whatever it takes! If any of you local folks in the area believe in our rural culture and want to help... PLEASE CONTACT ME! or tell your friends... peace! LOVE!
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2008! "Things can be great in 2008 but you have to WORK at it..."My favorite Lowell Thompson opened for Grace Potter at the Higher Ground New Year's celebration. His band was GREAT! and Grace and the Nocturnals are true rock 'n roll gems. What a great show it was!!!! Lowell's band also shared a night at Nectar's with The Coal Men... these northern and the southern bands rocked the joint and us girls sure had a blast!LET ME SAY THAT THESE FRIENDS REPRESENT SOME AMAZING TALENT... LISTEN UP! Here are some pix of December 2007 shows in Burlington... check the captions... We are so lucky to have such a FUN and active music scene in this area...
NOTE: I'm so very pleased with my original FIRST TOP EIGHT that I am leaving them in their top rows! I had to add a few more LOCALS... It's such a pleasure to appreciate you all... THANKS to all of you for making MUSIC!
Check out my BLOG, too... or BLOGS or whatever they are!

Band Members: Me and my friends... more coming! Mary P and I haven't played much because her band is keeping her busy. We have fun though! I'm still brushing up...
Influences: oh so many... we are lucky in this world with all the great music. nature, folks... that's the biggie. the question is... is it human nature? or just plain NATURE? Check out these Nashville boys, The Coal Men, singing "Louisiana." Let us not forget the power of NATURE... and how quickly it can change the world as we know it...Here is Giuliano Dottori in Fidenza, Italia... near where parmesan cheese comes from... yum! sweet show... a little late... sorry it's so dark!Now I can honestly say that these two gents have seriously influenced me over the past few years... folks, this is Bill Mullins and Lowell Thompson and if the lord has a way, I would run off with the two of them! I hope they don't mind me saying so AND posting this simultaneously... but I do love this duo...
