    B is for Baroness is a project I began in LA and continue on both coasts. Using my own experiences of love, loss and affection, I wanted these songs to start where the German-born Dadaist Elsa Von Frietag Loringhiven left off 100 years ago in her voyage to express her own voice.

    I call this music Whimsical Torch Song Pop. The tunes are sweet and simple, others traditionally filled out and conforming to the warmest parts of a French waltz musette, a Mexican ballad, a retrofit samba or a grrrl rock classic. Thanks for your interest!

    Also includes immediate download of 10-track album in your choice of 320k mp3, FLAC, or just about any other format you could possibly desire.     ... more

lyrics

I opened my eyes real early today, I had the feeling that I wanted to stay there
So I looked up at the ceiling, ‘til the feeling went away

I walked outside and the sun was so bright, not too long ago, it had been night
The dogs of time were chasing me down and I wanted to fight it
Should I go left or right or should I stay on target?

Stories that I know so well, I like to tell, but they’re a fiction
The phoenix and the unicorn, like uniforms become an addiction

I met a man on a train outa town, he looked me up and he looked me down
He said “in the end you’ll find all that’s pink turns to brown”

Well that stumped me and I turned my head, I had the idea to go back to bed
I checked my pockets … all I heard was this sound

Sometimes in the summer time I can go along and try to pretend
It’s all as it’s supposed to be, a book’s a book, a tree’s a tree
And that’s the end, … of the story, but not really

I opened my eyes real early today, I had the feeling that I wanted to stay there
So I looked up at the ceiling, ‘til the feeling went away

Stories that I know so well, I like to tell, but they’re a fiction
The phoenix and the unicorn, like uniforms become an addiction
