About Me


i am nan. am i?

my name's really nancy, but i like nan better. i know it's old-fashioned and may even make me sound like someone's gran or something, but i am, after all, over 100 years old. ehem.

anyway, i'm: (always) a dj, musician, and record collector/music geek . . . (sometimes) a librarian and/or archivist . . . (sometimes) an actor . . . (sometimes) an apprentice dog trainer . . . (always) a sensitive sort...

i make noise as tiny squabble and eeva luumu (documentary evidence forthcoming).

i'm starting up a wee lathe-cut record label. details soon. first release is out (and sold out). hoping to do more releases very soon.

i have a simian line on my right palm.

i wish i were more mysterious.

en syö lihaa.
