The seeds for her intricate folk guitar playing and wistful, timeless voice took root when she discovered artists such as Pentangle, Fairport Convention, Nick Drake, the Incredible String band, and a wellspring of traditional Irish folk music. Her 2001 album, Nature's Bride released on her own Girlhenge Records label was recorded to full studio polish and received airplay on the NPR & BBC Radio. Since 2003, Pamela has lived a largely isolated pastoral life as a caretaker in various estates throughout New England and the United Kingdom. With portable recording equipment, she produced "Courting Autumn", a rustic almanac of autumnal songs burnished with a melancholy mood, wistful vocals, delicate hand-spun guitar playing, weather-worn and windswept by plaintive string and recorder arrangements. Her "studios" included an 18th century house museum, a 19th farmhouse and stable, tool sheds, cow barns, sheep farms, a Colonial piggery, and various privies! |
