Amy's album! Amy's album! It's finally time for Amy's album!

If you've heard any of my music, either on one of my finished CDs (perhaps Wicked Girls?), you've heard Amy McNally. If you've been to a filk convention in the last ten years, you've probably heard Amy McNally. If you've been sitting in a filk circle and seen a blue-haired girl with a wicked grin and a fiddle in her hand getting ready to set a reel on fire, that was Amy McNally. She is the fiddler who will be playing the Devil for my soul when that whole crossroad bargain thing comes due, in addition to being my best beloved and one of my favorite people in the world.

Well, Amy has an album coming out Real Soon Now. Hazardous Fiddle, a mixture of traditional and original songs, all of them featuring her astonishing musicality, along with some of the other most talented musicians I know. She has like half the cast of Wicked Girls playing with her, and it's gorgeous.

She's taking pre-orders and sponsorships now, and you can click here to find out how.

I'm so excited for her, and so proud of her, and you should check it out. I promise you won't be sorry. Unless awesome music makes you sorry, and in that case, I'm sorry, too.

Amy's album!

Done a few days ago. I had the opportunity to hear her jam with a couple of musicians last summer and it was one of the most amazing things I've ever heard! (The second most amazing being her electric fiddle meets Jurassic Park part on "Counting Crows".)

Isn't that incredible?

Goosebumps, always.

YAY!

Also, this lady made you dragons, though I'm not sure she knows.

We're looking forward to our copy arriving whenever it does, as she's an amazing fiddler. Also, Josh owes her a thank you, though he doesn't know it. She recommended the Incredibow to me at Consonance, so I now have one I'm willing to let a toddler try and fiddle with.

Oh, neat!

I'll have to look into this, as I do like to listen to some good fiddling.

July 31 2012, 17:38:28 UTC 4 years ago

She's the best.

I'm in a serious financial bind until Dad's life insurance comes through (should be in a month), but I will get this as soon as possible!

I've always admired the violin work in your songs, plus we bluenettes have to stick together! *fistbumps to her*
