I came across this image in our salvaged box from Los Angeles. Somehow our photographer friend convinced me and Jennifer Kimball to sit in a snowbank in January in Western Massachusetts.

I remember wearing that men's coat to death, and my Dunham work boots. I remember writing songs like crazy after taking one composition course - our first assignment, to set an e. e. cummings poem of our choice to music..- "love is more thicker than forget" - I felt like I had been struck by lightning and finally figured out what I was supposed to do with all the melodies and words in MY head. And all those bizarre harmonies? Finally, I didn't have to keep them to myself! Jennifer was the perfect partner in dissonance!

MUSIC. Revelation.
