Can't wait...both for your Saturday show and the new album! ( vinyl, for me please ) I so admire your resilience in your crazy industry and in this crazy world! You will rock it, I am sure!
Melanie, your writing is always so refreshing, so honest, so real, so eloquent, in a very heartwarming, non-pretentious way. I have often thought of my songs as my children, and watching them evolve in studio with other musicians adding their creative energy I felt was a bit like seeing them maturing and making their way through Grad school. And I was ever the proud parent. But I have never, in my analogies, given them the voice, the personalities, that you have brought to life here. Beautiful and brilliant.
I wish you the best experiences with your new album release. I look forward both to hearing it when it becomes available online, and to hearing you « deliver your babies » in another of your live performances if you are playing anywhere near me when I am again back in the country.
I read in an article about Tom Waits shouting at his songs. My recollection is that he told it to, "Get in the car!" or something similar. I liked it. He also talked about driving home on the freeway and a song would come to him. Again, my recollection is that he'd tell it that he spent all day in the studio, and the song needed to respect his work hours. "Go find Leonard Cohen."

Resilience! Stubbornness! The line blurs.
Haha!
I can’t wait to hear the new music! (CD for me please!)
Alright. One for CDs. I love CDs. I'm on your team.
