Oh Ana Egge! Solid and soft, true teller of stories not always her own. Undeniably sensual. She'll hush a room with the quietest nudge and no one else has a voice like hers.

The Silver City
by Jeremy Messersmith
Somehow, and this has gone on for years now, I'm pretty much always in the mood to listen to Jeremy. And sing along at high volume, of course. You can also find me singing harmony on Breaking Down.

Longtime collaborator, gem of a man, and the biggest heart in the midwest. It's all beautiful. Rail to Reel has some of my voice and Andru engineered and played & sang all over my album, For You Only.
