A Personal Note From Heather: Thank you to NO DEPRESSION MAGAZINE for spotlighting my ode to the hopeful homesteaders who filled their quarantine days with baking, home improvement and gardening while missing that special someone. I - in the spirit of the song - wrote, recorded, filmed and edited everything, and set this as an Andrews Sisters-esque timepiece ... hoping one day, pandemic will seem that distant a memory ... And so it was: The Lost Year. I am waiting on my first shot, beginning to book outdoor shows again, the calendar is updating, and I would love to get your venue, porch ... hell, even your driveway ... on it! Please EMAIL ME with booking requests and venue recommendations.

I would spend most of March 2020 incredibly sick. With what ... I'm not sure, but the fever subsided and I joined the streaming/video-making community, alternating live performances with pre-recorded fun like this version of "The Animal Crackers Song" I did quarantined with my Partridge Family. There's a new page in the menu, "Quarantimes," where you can watch and listen to what I've been up to, and tip if you can. ilyAIMY also released a three-set live album on Bandcamp (check it out), from our last full-band show, more than a year ago. That night, rob's birthday, we were on fire, and the performances are some of our best. There's even a previously unrecorded song or two, covers of Tool, Portishead, a little Sade. And I've uploaded basically my entire catalog to Bandcamp.

Heather is the reigning GRAND PRIZE WINNER of the $10,000 Bernard Ebb Songwriting Award. Heather's songs "Good Heart" and "If We Come Too Late" wowed the judges and landed her the win, along with a few free sessions at Innovation Station Studio! Mastering is DONE, with plans to release two vinyl singles in 2021.

MEANWHILE ...
