I have known Erin for years upon years, but it's only in the last few that we've really started working together on stuff. We've toured together in Ireland and on the west coast of the US (also for one random dreamlike show on Mallorca), and just recently we played our first duo shows, with Erin backing up my songs with her insightful and daring electric guitar playing, which was stupid fun. We are also neighbors and she lives in a tiny house which I covet and like to be in. The house has a river outside it which I also covet and like to be in. Sometimes the house is heated by corn (much like Peter Mulvey).

Erin sometimes operates under an alias and pretends to be French, but you didn't hear it from me. She has released a powerful slew of fantastic records and there's a new one on the way which is a standards record, and I'm talking a really good one...
