I sing and write to make a sense of my existence - my place
in this world, in this body. Each song is a specific journey
down a road that is either familiar or less traveled... they
are my magic carpets to see again a memory or expectation. I
use songs - melodies and words - to guide me, like a rudder
through the waters of life. Sometimes I like to take a forgotten
channel to the mouth of a secret lake.
I think I sing in public to reassure this kind of journey- to
never lose touch with what is instinctual. -Thea Ennen
THE SKINNY:
Long a favorite is the club/coffee house circuit of the Midwest,
piano-playing/singing/songwriting, Thea Ennen is an artist in
every sense of the word (she also writes poetry, draws, sculpts,
does arts and crafts and even designs clothing for theatrical
productions.) Her self-produced, self-penned "All Aboard"
won her the Minnesota Folk Recording of the Year.
SOUNDS LIKE:
One might superficially classify Thea's music as countryfolk,
but that would be selling her far to short. She is simply a
wonderful songstress, with a penchant for creating music that
is multi-textured, melodically rich and lyrically adept.
