lavender diamond, aptly named folk

Posted almost 5 years ago
yesterday's lunch, stealing the shade of nice healthy oak to take a lil' cat nap for myself. i put on album 88 to listen to some tunes, but instead, a sweet girl talking about string theory, energy flow, hope for humanity, power of individuality, imposition of life, loving the ground, excitement for renaissance.i listened to "becky" and completely agreed, wishing i could be as articulate and steadfast. she's right, you know. heard of lavender diamond. earthy, whimsical vocals. pleasantry.she talked: about having a weak voice when she was young, not speaking till she was three. about a singing scholarship taught by a man who spent time in the war trench listening to soldiers death cry. about eating in a turkish pizza place in belgium and being mortified that AKON was on repeat play.her name is becky stark. i recognize that name! she sang on elvis perkins _ash wednesday._ beautiFULL. warm & kind, becky's got it right.

  5. bringmeup says Lavendar Diamond is so great. I remember the exact day I heard of them, it was March 1st. And I wrote the name down on my calendar and said if I ever changed my name it would be to Lavendar Diamond. Haha.

  9. soulrocket says "about having a weak voice when she was young, not speaking till she was three" that reminds me of my bro. he didnt speak until he was almost 4, he just pointed at what he needed. heartbreaking tune.
