Jodi Shaw- will be gracing our living room in November. I've been a fan of Jodi's since her CD, "The Pie-Love Sky" was sent to me two years ago.
I still listen to it religiously. It's one of the best CDs I've gotten in the last 5 years. I'm more than excited to hear these songs live.
Plus, her new CD, Snow on Saturn, will be out by then!! Go here to hear some clips.

Please help out this site,
visit the Collected Sounds store for all your merchandise needs!
...as usual... I am still asking for visitors to submit CD or concert reviews for the site. It doesn't even have to be a performer
that I spotlight, just one that you like. A few requirements are that the women featured must be "total artists" and by that I mean
they must write their own music. Not necessarily ALL their own, collaborations are fine and a few covers are fine, but primarily
their music must be their own. So if there is a CD that you just can't seem to get out of your CD player or a show that you can't
stop raving about, please write up a little something and send it to me
Thanks for your help out. Please keep visiting and sending me your suggestions, requests, etc...
