Libby Kirkpatrick www.libbykirkpatrick.com Libby Kirkpatrick hails from Boulder, CO and was the winner of the 1999 Troubador songwriting contest at the Telluride Bluegrass & Folk Festival. She is an incredible songwriter, both in crafting lyrics and melody as well as unleashing some pretty incredible acoustic guitar playing. She has a sailing voice... much like what you would imagine a female Jeff Buckley to sound like---only solo acoustic, but just as powerful. She has an original sound, but with some hints of Jonatha Brooke and Patty Griffin in her writing style but is by all means original. Both of her CDs are completely solo acoustic (minus few songs with subtle cello) and completely FANTASTIC. The one I recommend the most is "Winged" but once you get it, you will end up buying "Songs from the Ether" too, so you might as well get both to save on shipping. These two CDs are on my desert island 10 list, right along with our own Ms. Griffin's LWG.

Her CDs are very engaging and engrossing. But, I would choose her solely for the song "Sylvia Hotel". An absolutely gorgeous song!!! Jonatha Brooke - b/c all the success she is enjoying has been by herself after being dumped by 2 labels.(One in the middle of a tour, no less) She has fostered a nice little "cult" following. Her songs are insightful and wonderfully crafted. She also is not afraid to try new things - to great results Ani DiFranco - b/c she's Ani! Also someone who is not afraid to re-invent herself musically. (Owning your label, I guess you have that luxury; same with Jonatha) - -----Original Message----- From: LMYERS2HOU@aol.com [mailto:LMYERS2HOU@aol.com] Sent: Monday, July 23, 2001 8:49 AM To: mad-mission@smoe.org Subject: MM: Re: female folk singer/songwriters In a message dated 7/23/01 12:48:54 AM Central Daylight Time, owner-mad-mission-digest@smoe.org writes: << I need 17 female/singer/songwriters for someone who is searching for great music. >> Definitely Cheryl Wheeler.
