Apparently November 18th is Occult day and since I didn't record in time for halloween, this will be my excuse to share a favorite cover of mine! 

The first dream I ever remember having was a terrifying reoccurring nightmare with a witch that would chase me around with these ancient leathery hands and horrifying cackling laugh.  She haunted me for some time until I finally became lucid within the dream and decided to confront her. 
As I turned to face her the the sun came out and shown on her usually shadowy figure to reveal a wise and charismatic smile, the kind that melted away my fear. We then laughed and sang songs and danced together in joy. After that the dreams stopped. It wasn't until years later when I was reading an amazing book by Clarissa Pinkola Estes called Women Who Run With Wolves, that I realized the witch I encountered in my dreams was like that of the Slavic Baba Yaga, who embodies the wild feminine archetype. A being of numinous life burning with intuition and unapologetic enthusiasum. 
  I love magical tales and legendary figures of history and a favorite of mine is the fascinating and powerful Marie Laveau of New Orleans. This is a cover slash slight reinterpretation of Redbones classic tune. After learning a bit about her history, I felt inspired to shift the lyrics slightly as to paint her in more of a positive light. 

Enjoy, maybe
