Autumn Leaves
What a summer! With both heat and flooding downpours (too much), we also had some fantastic shows and are thrilled at how great they were. There were also some poetry events and inspiration in the City and northern Michigan, And we’ve got one more show which is actually our first Fall show – maybe the last show for a bit. The gig is this Sunday, September 26 2021 at The Cadieux Cafe in Detroit, and is outdoors on the cool stage at Mussel Beach, in an afternoon matinee of rock and roll soul and gypsy folk.
With Fall coming in, there’s more good news that my song “Afterthought” is featured in an Amazon Prime movie, “Poor Greg Drowning!” Nice movie and licensing news!
We’re about to embark on the new album, hopefully releasing new singles first, before the EP and/or album. We had hoped to have more recording done by now, but have written more new songs and have started pre production on the songs. So this Fall is an important time to reel in the songs and work we’ve started with them.
With a nod to Halloween in about a month, have a real cool time and stay safe!
Love,
Carolyn

“Love the colour of your heartfelt voice, lovely intro on ‘Cornered Room’ great song! ‘Let It Go’ another favourite of mine, nice rapping, and love the gypsy feel on ‘Russian Inn’ beautiful violinist. Stunning album, love it”
Striho continues to share her brilliance, effortlessly moving from bluesy and jazzy to belted out rock & roll. Her latest release, Afterthought, showcases all of these styles, along with a few more that might surprise people. The musical poetry is undeniably Striho however, and she manages to pull everything together with the ease of a seasoned pro and the flair of a master illusionist. She makes her own creative path and people can’t help but follow where she leads…
“Afterthought moves through a host of musical moods, from the moodier, darker vibe of the opening title track to exotic gypsy-rock feel of “Russian Inn” to the lively, driving sound of “Love Won’t Stay Close” which you can hear exclusively for now in this Freep First Spin debut.”
