I'm still figuring it out, but one thing I know for certain is I love music and I'm so grateful for all the gifts it has brought to my life. In May 2011, I took a huge leap of faith and moved from Iowa down to Austin for a year, to study at Rubicon Artist Development and make my first EP. This post and the video below are a good little introduction to that story:

    About Me  

    Ask me anything

    My roommate is pretty awesome for a number of reasons, the latest of which being this video.  I am guilty of at least some version of ALL of these things, and as Jana says, so is she! So she’s totally allowed to make this video!  

    Jana Pochop y’all.  The “H” is silent because she uses it for Hilarious. :-D

    Jumping on the bandwagon….if you’re a singer-songwriter, you might be guilty. If you hang around singer-songwriters, you know.

    Here is “A Sister’s Prayer” from my show at Cafe Paradiso on Dec 27th, 2011.  What you can’t see in the video is my whole family, my brother’s girlfriend and her family and a bunch of family friends out in the audience started crying as I sang this, which meant I had to work hard to hold it together!

    A song I wrote last year, put away for a while, got out again and tweaked a bit that I now like playing out at open mics and such!

    Thanks to Timmy Riorden and his Fearless Songwriting weeks for the inspiration.

    WINGS by Heather Miller - 2011
    I can’t sit still for more than a minute 
    I can’t focus on what’s right in front of me 
    There’s a moth on the floor, beating his wings ragged 
    What a way to go, am I doing the same thing? 

    Wings are so delicate, paper-thin 
    but they can carry, they can carry, they can carry you far 
    Wings are so delicate, feather-light 
    but they can carry, they can carry, they can carry you far 

    I look outside for some kind of answer 
    They say “time management” & “walk in bare feet” 
    A hummingbird flits by, almost like magic
    If she can do it, can I do it somehow?

    Wings are so delicate, paper-thin 
    but they can carry, they can carry, they can carry you far 
    Wings are so delicate, feather-light 
    but they can carry, they can carry, they can carry you far 

    Wanna fly 
    Gonna try
    I’ll just believe, I’ll just believe, I’ll just believe I can 

    Wings are so delicate, paper-thin 
    but they can carry, they can carry, they can carry you far 
    Wings are so delicate, feather-light 
    but they can carry, they can carry, they can carry you far

    Playing my song “Jonah’s Whale” with the Band That Has Not Yet Been Named. :) So fun!

    We spent 12 weeks getting together on at Rubicon Artist Development on Monday nights to work on 4 songs (one for each of us) in the group. This was at our final showcase performance.

    My guitar assignment last week was to make cupcakes.  Yes, you read that right.  Sweet stuff!

    The Spoken & Heard open mic I was at last Sunday was broadcast on UStream and also recorded!  I was the last one to play, so if you don’t want to hear a bunch of awesome songs and spoken word poetry (probably some not safe for work), fast-forward to 55 minutes.  But really, check some of that stuff out!
