Lost in France, alone and tired, almost a decade ago. A black binded book within which the innermost thoughts came out, when they were allowed to come out... most pages left blank. A single page towards the end was torn open and scrawled with the words of a soul drifting at sea, "what do you do when you feel the music inside of you, but you don't know how to let it out?"

The book is long gone, but the spirit of that statement penned in desire lives on. It is the seed from which all of my music has since grown from, and has provided the foundation for the songs you hear on this page. These songs are about life, and love, and at times about the pain surrounding each of these things. They derive from a folk music spirit, but take wings on rock and pop, and whatever other names you want to put on the sounds. They put a smile on my face and a spring in my step, and I hope they do the same for you. Thanks for listening, and I hope you'll keep in touch. I'd love to perform these songs for you in person someday soon...

yourn,
e-s guthrie
