About Me |
|
| NOTE: THIS IS MY SECOND MY SPACE PROFILE PAGE.
TO HEAR 4 MORE TRACKS THEN GO TO MY ORIGINAL SPACE: www.myspace.com/pmvonkaenel THANK YOU! Songwriting is a release for me, arguably a morbid secretion =o)x, but it's a more acceptable form of expression than oh, say punching someone...or drooling in public. I think you'll agree. I have learned from watching others, subsequently, I don't have a band. I have only ever worked with session players. It suits me better than a band -session players are on the clock, band members are 'round the clock...and I've got the patience of the fur trap when it comes to paying for studio time. ;~) I've been singing all my life, started writing songs about 10 years ago and I've gigged around the London & Memphis circuits a bit. However, much of my career has been in broadcasting under various monikers, the most successful being Michele Stephens. It's been a very colourful career and too much to go into here...let's just say it's a long way from Pocahontas, Arkansas to London, England for a girl with no formal education. Thanks for popping by. PM ALL SONGS COPYRIGHT! FOR BOOKINGS OR GENERAL INQUIRIES CONTACT: 44 (O) 1255.852.595 (ALL SONGS COPYRIGHT) FOR BOOKINGS OR GENERAL INQUIRIES CONTACT: 44 (0)1255 852 595 |
