I hope this hasn't been posted already, but there's a picture of Patty (in pigtails!) on Ellis Paul's website... The link: http://www.ellispaul.com/newpics/EPPG.htm It's cute. Go look. And check out Ellis' music while you're at it! Patty sings back up on several of his albums... Off the top of my head, the only title I can remember is "Carnival of Voices", but I know she sings on more than that. Also, I got Julie Miller's new album for Christmas--"Broken Things"... What a beautiful and awesome CD, I LOVE IT! One of my favorites of 1999. :) Anyway, Patty sings on the fourth track, "I Still Cry"... I would actually call it a duet instead of just backup vocals... Patty's voice is easily heard. It's a gorgeous, heartbreaking song. Get this album, you'll love it. Okay, I'm done advertising! :) Smiles, Misty ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 10 Jan 2000 15:54:49 -0500 (EST) From: runrunrun@dellmail.com Subject: Re: MM: O/T: Julie Miller/Ellis Paul > Also, I got Julie Miller's new album for Christmas--"Broken Things"... What a > beautiful and awesome CD, I LOVE IT! \ I got it too!!! I love it! I've been a fan of Julie's since Blue Pony came out in '97 - my favorite is "I Still Cry." It's probably one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. It made me cry - it's so pretty. I wanna go see Julie & Buddy when they come to The Tin Angel - but I can't drive!!!! AAAAHHHH!!! Oh well, at least I can hear them on cd.....plus, there's always room to dream...... ..........((*.*)).................DARCIE................

A couple of timely things: First, as I started typing this, Julie Miller's lovely voice just came over the airwaves on Boston's incomparable WUMB (available online at www.wumb.org; they also played Patty earlier). Also, for anyone who'll be in the Boston area next weekend...In light of recent discussions about harmony vocals, Jennifer Kimball's latest email, received just a few minutes ago, mentions that she'll be leading a workshop on harmony at Club Passim's new School of Music. The workshop is entitled something like "How Does She Find Those Notes?" I don't know the cost. I do know that you can find out more info by checking www.clubpassim.com or calling Passim at (617) 492-7679. Ciao, Joe ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 10 Jan 2000 23:19:04 GMT From: "That Loud Girl" Subject: MM: harmony singing Hey all, How to sing harmony in 5 easy steps: 1) Insert favorite tape/CD into tape/CD player (alternate directions: tune radio to favorite tuneful station) 2) Proceed to sing along with the song coming out of said listening device. 3) Once you feel passably comfortable with your progress on step 2, play around and find other notes that sound good with what the said singer is singing (or, if said singer is really a plural, try and pick out both parts, and sing along with one or the other--I swear, I learned to sing harmony by doing this with the Indigo Girls for a few years). 4) Repeat as necessary. 5) Proceed to trying with other live vocal bodies. Repeat earlier steps as needed. For me, harmony seems more of an instinctive thing than a theoretical one. Maybe its because my mom taught music when I was little, or because I spent summer after summer at Girl Scout camp singing campfire songs. Or maybe its really as easy as it seemed. Who knows. In any case, have fun and keep singing! :), Shel ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ End of mad-mission-digest V4 #7 *******************************
