[Mike Matthews ] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Wed, 14 Sep 2016 13:39:46 -0700 From: jessica spurling Subject: =?UTF-8?Q?New_album_by_Elbe_Spurling_=28=C9=98lbe=29?= Hi everyone, My future wife, Elbe Spurling, is a highly creative artist, most known for her work with Lego under her birth name, Brendan Powell Smith. She spent over 10 years illustrating stories from the Bible in Lego, then did two history books illustrated in Lego, and is now working on illustrating the Book of Mormon (and the history and teachings of the LDS church), all in Lego. She's also an amazing musician. I think that quite a bit of her musical work could be of interest to ectophiles. Her early work is very quirky and folky. Her more recent work is more psychadelic and pop/rock/kind of all over the place, really. She enjoys mixing up different sounds and styles. She recently recorded a double album that's a concept album about her transition, primarily inspired by her own gender transition among other life transitions she has experienced. She's looking to help raise money for the Trans Lifeline, as transgender people are disproportionately more likely to suffer from depression and suicide. The album has been submitted via cdbaby and should be streamable from online services soon, but in the meantime if you want to support Trans Lifeline, you can get a download link if you donate $10. Please visit http://elbemusic.com/ if you're interested! As soon as the album is streamable, I'll let you know, in case you want to check it out but don't want to donate to Trans Lifeline. - -seneca PS: you can hear elbe's earliest music here: http://www.thereverend.com/albums.html ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 14 Sep 2016 03:00:00 -0400 (EDT) From: Mike Matthews Subject: Today's your birthday, friend... i*i*i*i*i*i i*i*i*i*i*i *************** *****HAPPY********* **************BIRTHDAY********* *************************************************** *************************************************************************** ******************* Karron Lynn Lane (no Email address) ******************* *************************************************************************** -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- - -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Karron Lynn Lane Tue September 14 1751 Ophelia Virgo Troy Wollenslegel Mon September 18 1972 Virgo Mark Frabotta Sun September 19 1965 Don't even THINK about parking here Joe Zitt Sat September 20 1958 Will Hack for CDs Ani DiFranco Wed September 23 1970 Virgo Lord Tyr Mon September 24 1979 Libran Paul Kim Sat October 01 1977 fetal position JoAnn Whetsell Fri October 01 1976 Pendulum Ella McCrystle Tue October 03 1967 Libra William Gill Wed October 05 1960 A wide-eyed wanderer Birdie Breeze Mon October 05 1959 OooOoooWheeee Dan Riley Sun October 08 1961 Libra Neile Graham Wed October 08 1958 pen Quenby M.
