I Needed To Carve Out My Own

Well, The First Year I Lost My Voice I Didn't Mind So Much Because I Was Going To Have A Baby And I Was Distracted With Him Anyway, I Didn't Even Think About It That Much, Well, Ok, This Is What's Happening.

More And More, I See Myself As A Folk Musician, And Someone Who Values Context.

I Was Sensitive To Music And Poetry, And It Was Around Me Growing Up.

When I Was 18 Years Old, I Went On The Road With My Dad After I Graduated From High School. And We Were Riding On The Tour Bus One Day, Kind Of Rolling Through The South, And He Mentioned A Song. We Started Talking About Songs, And He Mentioned One, And I Said I Don't Know That One. And He Mentioned Another. I Said I Don't Know That One Either, Dad, And He Became Very Alarmed That I Didn't Know What He Considered My Own Musical Genealogy.

With Time The Unbearable Becomes Shocking, Becomes Sad, And Finally Becomes Poignant.
