There is endless work to an album. I'm sitting here listening to the premixes, and just read an email that says Jeff at Phoenetic Sound will have it mastered pretty effing soon, as in take a few days off and get back to it by the end of this week. And it sounds GOOD. And it doesn't have a name yet. I have NO IDEA what to name this fucking album. "The New Fabulous" came so easy, as a joke pretty much over drinks before a duelling piano show, and now not too much is coming for this one... maybe I'm not having enough fun or drinks... wow thats not fucking true at all, I feel like these past two weeks have been extraordinarily drunk, more than I usually am.
It'll come to me. Don't worry, well maybe do worry, I might be drooling laying on my back in a gutter trying not to puke when it finally does come to me...
Lets fucking hope not!!!!!
I'm doing some fun things this weekend, maybe thats when inspiration will hit me. (or a fucking bus) I'm playing at http://www.nightofartists.com/ Night of Artist's 15th anniversary show Friday night, and I'm super excited about it. I think music and art should be besties, atleast facebook friends, and follow each other on twitter and all that shit. I gotta rush outta there and get my ass to the Overtime in Sherwood park right after, so I can't stick around too long and be artsy with my new artsy friends, but I'll try. Plus I'll be there early for soundcheck and I can be artsy then. If you wanna come msg me I've got some cheap tickets! thenewfabmusic@live.ca
Also, Saturday night.... wow. We'll be playing Deadcity Prom!
They have an arch, and prom pictures, and I met a sax player at a house party that will also be playing. She was as drunk as I was so we probably can't remember each others names. But we'll see each other at Deadcity Prom and have a slow motion moment, a sappy romantic comedy moment and run to each other or something gross. It'll be all big hair and big titties. You'll like it, don't miss it, at Dead City Prom this Saturday @ Mead Hall.
I haven't played Mead Hall yet, I think they usually do heavy metal kinda stuff, but Deadcity is the Fab Tiff Hall's friend, so they picked us to get in on this stuff, and I'm going to find a prom dress and zombie makeup. Not 100% sure if I'll be the only one dressed up or not, but I like it anyway.
Kyle says if I got bit by a zombie he'd shoot me in the face without even blinking an eye. I told him I'd let him eat me and we'd be zombie lovers forever. I also wrote this next entire album about him and how much I love him, so prepare to puke from cute love overdoses.
No don't! It's fun I promise!

Happy tuesday!
We're headin out to Red Deer this weekend! I always get into mischief in Red Deer.
No I don't. I get drunk on "Stage" and encourage the locals to take their shirts off. True story!
I was almost rich the other day. The bank made a mistake (which SHOULD mean I get to keep that money... fucking jerks) and double deposited something into my account, and I phoned them being like "there's $900 in my bank account." "yes...?" "I'm a musician. That doesn't happen. I sure as fuck didn't WORK for that money...where'd it come from???"
They took it away and the world is right again. Don't worry.
But I do have some money, the Indiegogo site helped raise about $460 ish and I'm super proud of that :)
My mom helped me out a big chunk o' dough and it pretty much means that the album will be mixed and mastered by the deadline and I will remain intact! Rawlco will NOT have to cut my head off and stick it on a pole on their front lawn as a warning to other Rawlco recipients on finishing your project on time! Thanks Mom.
So in return for her generosity, I'm trying to arrange to have the band come out and play a big ass show and she can tell all of B.C. to come and watch and we'll get famous. But to get people to come to that party, I'm trying to set up a small tour of the area, so that maybe we make some "fans" (I still have a hard time with that... no one is a "fan" of mine) (it's weird. you try it. but seriously, not jokingly...its weird) So I'm a busy busy lady!
So if you like Red Deer, come on out to Local's Pub and watch me "perform" teehee

Also, move to B.C. cause theres gonna be a rad party out there probably in Sept and it will involve some more "performing"

indiegogo
Hello all, my indiegogo campaign is complete! Thanks to the many that were involved, and preordered the new cd, the old cd, or even a large fluffy thank you card, which I will be making as soon as the CD's are DONE and I can mail everything to you all at once!!!!
It really meant alot to me to open up my email account and see that there were new contributions to the indiegogo site... that anyone has ever heard my music and actually BUYS it is amazing to me! In my own brain I'm just a wanker with a couple of pianos trying to get someone to take me seriously while chugging beers and playing "I'm a Barbie girl" if there's a five dollar bill attached to it. That anyone knows any of the words to my songs, or even took a guess at what they could mean seriously blows my mind.
This project really means alot to me because it's a progression from some of the "New Fab" songs. Some of them were from the group of very very first songs that I wrote, and that was a long time ago, these are newer, more recent, and show a maturing (ha!) in my songwriting. Or atleast a progression, proof that I'm actually aging and growing up in atleast one aspect of my life.
I'm not there yet though... we still need more mullah before I can pay Jeff at Phoenetic Sound for all the mixing and mastering, but this bought a good chunk of it!!! Every bit helps, and the fact that people care enough about listening to more music by me to give me some of their hard earned money to give to Jeff is amazing! Thanks to everyone who ordered:
Brittany Jansen, Heather Hawkins, Daina and Jan Semotiuk, Morgan MacKay, Lacey Barrowman, Gary and Cindi Williams, Eva Kreider, Tamara Lowe, Lesley Pelletier, Dale Heinrich, Thea Shukaliak, Mandy Reider, Rhonda MacLeod and one anonymous friend who didn't even give me their name!
Thanks to everyone who posted the campaign on their facebook or twitter or myspace, thanks to everyone who showed their friends and family! I'll have a listening party as soon asap!
In the meantime, I looked up "Tiffany Hall" and besides all the murder trials and one link that said "People you will see in Hell" (not me dudes, apparently there's a murderess named Tiffany Hall that has nothing to do with me!!!!) there is one link of a jamaican girl singing and here's the link to that! Please enjoy some more music by Tiffany Hall that will NOT be appearing on my second album (you'll have to look her up to find out more about this different Tiffany Hall)
