About

I made a six song EP, which I culled from the 14 Songs I wrote as part of the FAWM Challenge. I had a stressful month where I was really distracted, so the album ended up being exclusively composed using the Chordbot app (hence the name) all through the month and rush recorded on the last day on my Ipad using, initially, a portable audio interface with phantom power and eventually dwindling down to an Rode AI-Micro and a Lavalier mic. This is probably the worst sounding RPM Challenge record I have ever put together, but I am good with leaving room to grow. This record is for anyone who enjoys 50ish women recording half written songs of questionable quality and subject matter. Cheers!

Favourite Moment

I thought of Peepers International a long time ago and I finally got around to getting it out of my head TODAY!

Plan ahead. Or not.
