ladymondegreen The song imagines that October Daye has gained sentience outside book world, realizes that Seanan is the one doing all of these horrible things to her, and threatens revenge. :D (You can see the lyrics, and an early performance of this song, here.)Rand and I had a truly fantastic weekend at OVFF. Among the highlights for us was our 4-song concert set on Sunday afternoon, during which we got to debut 3 new songs that will appear on our upcoming album! (Here's our Indiegogo page, if you are so inclined!)
The four songs we played were:
I'm a much more confident performer than I was four years ago at FKO, and I owe it all to this wonderful, supportive, nurturing community. Thank you for making me believe I could do this!
I'm so proud of the songs Rand and I have written for this album. They are all the results of truly collaborative efforts--I don't (yet) write any music, just lyrics, so the music/melodies are all Rand (except "Do As Peggy Says," which was a collaboration with Adam!). With only a couple of exceptions, all the original lyrics on our upcoming album were written by the two of us together, with the actual process varying from song to song.
And I can't end this post without mentioning the amazingly talented Amy McNally and Brenda Sutton, who helped make "Nasty" everything we dreamed it could be. <3
We also got to spend some time hanging out with the whole Vixy & Tony band to talk about some tracks on the album they're going to assist us on. (squee!)
I'm probably not going to get around to a full con report, but it was an amazing weekend filled with friends and music and laughter, and I've got a bit of the back-to-work blues today. (And as usual, there was too much to do and I did not get around to a whole bunch of things I had planned on doing, so my apologies to anyone I neglected!)
As always, many thanks to the ConCom for all you do!
