    Comes in a carefully designed high quality glossy digipak with original photography by Naomi White, cover art by Brian Carter and the bonus track by Fledgeling called "Chocolate Lips" not available for digital download.

    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.

lyrics

I gagged as the tumbleweed rolled off my tongue and
Onto the highway as we drove along
Like our lost love it roamed the mesas
And hit all the cars from different places

It formed in my belly and grew into a tree
With tiny twigs poking out of me
Pieces broke off and fell in the soup
You swallowed them not knowing, ooooooh

I rolled you, you rolled me, tangled in the tumbleweed

We were pulling at our strings trying to knit each other free
From that human spoil, from that senseless debris
Pulling out of driveways and climbing out on peaks
Trying to make it all right but wasting all our weeks

I soaked up all that heat from those mineral springs
I couldn’t help but feel that I was bumping into things
That tumbleweed came towards me and it knocked me down
I slipped and I went tumbling back to town

I rolled you, you rolled me, tangled in the tumbleweed

The glow from the stove gave us a kind of home
With comforting sounds on the radio
We didn’t see it coming that tumbling weed
We were oh so happy and so alone

Disintegrated, obliterated,
Not much left but tiny traces
A million miles and still there are shadows,
Highs and lows of yesterday’s battles

I rolled you, you rolled me, tangled in the tumbleweed
