The I'mperfectionist

About Me

I am a complicated lady-child. I make music out of necessity. Each song is inspired by a person or event and can be reversed to represent my own issue with myself or vice/versa. There is irony present in everything musically that I do sometimes intentionally often unintentionally, equally appreciated. I write all lyrics make all beats, play all instruments, sing all songs. I don't use much but I'm hoping that will change soon. I have just released my long awaited debut album ----The I'mperfectionist. It has been 7 1/2 years in the making and not much to show for all that time except for the realization that "time heals all wounds" is some major bullshit. I'm an ambassador of mistakes and a self destruction squad wrapped up inside a chunky body and a strange face. Behind my heart lives the littlist and strongest optimist! She is trying to escape. She makes major thrusts forward to move that heavy rock and so my heart beats, and when she escapes so shall I. So many times I feel her nearing that exit, but the weight of my heart buries her again and so I live, this realistic life that screams all I am worth is all I am worth and that hasn't amounted to much.
