"What kind of music do you write?"
"That's a loaded question", I reply. " I write whatever comes out." Which means that you'll hear a variety of styles in different genres. Hey, can't stop creativity.

I hear words and melodies in my head all day long. (Does that mean I may be crazy? LOL) Anything can inspire a new song.

Just so you know, a lot of the songs I have listed here were created and to CD, sometimes in just a few hours. Others listed took longer.

For example, "Join The Day" and "Don't Think" were stream of consciousness songs. Both were created and on CD in about 5 hours.

On the flip side, "Talk To Me" was created in Colorado, and finished in NY. Lots of time and miles between the start and finish of that one.

On top of that, some were written quite some time ago... maybe even as long as a decade! (or maybe longer). And some, are forever just an idea.

All in all, my goal is FOR SALE, BY OWNER, anything beyond that is just gravy.

In addition to performing and writing music, Natalie was also responsible for founding a Chicago music publication, The Local Buzz, as well as Sugar Buzz Records. In her positions as Editor and Publisher she took the paper's circulation to 30,000 in 2 years. This also provided local bands an opportunity to advertise, increase mailing lists and showcase their music at Local Buzz Nites.
