First experiment with Garage Band on my iphone composing a purely electronic song and mix. I did this on a bus...for someone who has been playing "real" instruments her entire life, this was surprisingly fun. I enjoy composing, no matter what my medium. I would like to add vocals to this track, i am feeling a little Linkin Park(esque) with this one.

Composition on a Bus

Acoustic version of my original song "Party Like a Rockstar" recorded on my iphone in my garage. Just me and my piano.

Can I get a booty pic?

This song is a joke. I made it to send to a dude who asked me for a booty pic. This was my response. 

Nuff said. He didn't get a booty pic.

Booty Pic

Basically this is one of the first songs I ever wrote in college but never got to record until years later. Lyrics recorded on the first take, in a hallway. :-) This was done on Garage Band. I wrote the music, played the keyboards, wrote the lyrics and did the vocals. I would LOVE to redo this song and record it better and get rid of that darn guitar riff, its annoying :-) 

So What If I Care? (my first song)

I wrote this song in a single afternoon about the night I met a guy who ended up becoming a long term boyfriend and the inspiration for many of my songs. Being an office worker by day, I never got out much, and this was about that one fateful evening. Sometimes the best songs are the quickest and easiest to write. Dave Dresden said this one is "catchy as fuck". I recorded the lyrics in a closet with a mic and played the keyboards. Produced by Jim Settle

Was going through a big change in my life, this song is a reflection of that.
