Note on these recordings:  Most are home recordings.  Some of these home recordings are very rough, others are smoother, and others have been produced in conjunction with other folks.  Some of these albums were created on cassette tape, for the purpose of teaching others the songs.  My aim is to just get the songs out there, so I’ve included the unpolished recordings along with the more polished ones, in the hopes that the songs will shine through.

If you are interested, you can also track, through these songs, my history as a songwriter and wisdom-seeker–seeing where I started out (Vintage Cindy), my favorite themes (the earth, feminine empowerment and spirituality, love and connection, oneness and wholeness), and my personal evolution.

Community Music Project
The Community Music Project is rooted in the rich, creative, and vibrant soil of the Carrboro/Chapel Hill/Chatham County North Carolina community. Since 2000, we have produced one CD every year. We record local songwriters and singers, compile the songs and artwork into a CD, and give 1000 copies away to the CD musicians, friends, and community members–wherever we think the music will be appreciated.
