Just wanted to reach out to everyone out there in the big world and our growing community.

Thank you again for continuing to support us and our our music. As you can imagine it gets hard being on the road constantly, grinding and traveling. But we love it...and we love meeting all of you and sharing this music and these stories and ideas.

I wanted to personally apologize to anyone if I ever seem disconnected or unapproachable, it is not intented...just part of being human i suppose. Touring recently has been extra tough with little sleep, playing in towns we have never been-feeling the distance. But feeling rejuvenated as well everytime we put on a show where i can tell people are getting something speical and real from the experience..and I know we are in the company of friends and family. The road takes alot out of you, and I feel so blessed to have the chance to do this and to meet all the amazing people I have been able to connect with despite any toll it may take on my on personal plane.

Please don't ever hesitate to come talk to me or anyone else in the band, we love having the chance to meet you, hear your story, get your perspective and piece of the puzzle. This is why i play music and share my stories and most intimate moments. To connect on a human level and share in empathy because there is so much for us all to relate on.

I don't take it for granted how lucky i am to be able to do this, and move in such a way to spread this vibe and visit new atmospheres and communities. Please, stop my world, humble me, if ever i come accross unware or unconscience of your existence and your attempt at reaching out to me. I mean no harm if i seem aloof, I am probably just tired, hungry, or feelin funky at that moment, maybe i have too much on my mind, or feel overwhelmed by all the things to do to prepare for a show, or end a night.

I am never too busy to sit down with you, even if i can't that moment we will, and i look forward to it. I've met some really amazing people these days...and it's opening my mind and heart all the time.

thank you and I look forward to connecting with you all soon..you have all my love and all my blessings...we are moving the mountain together...and reconnecting as one tribe slowly but surely with music.

peace, blessings, and SOUL POWER!

Laura, I've met you twice and both times I know you were exhausted from the show because it was an intense and AMAZING show. Not once did you even show any other emotion besides being grateful, sweet and very humble. Be yourself, its why we all keep coming to see you and your awesome band. I love you!!

hey sister.
just know that your brethren in the NC miss you guys.
we are sssoooo proud of you all!!!!
hearing about the train action you guys got in on really made me happy for you.
the entire group of you deserve all the kindness and success in the world.
The Mantras Love and Miss You.
peace my sista

ps- i'm the same way at shows sometimes......it's not always easy to make everyone feel like you gave them the attention they expect. I personally, have a difficult time not being brutally honest with people; until they show me that they can't handle it; but i wind up being taken as a douche when i'm just tryin to be honest sometimes.
there is a fine line between being honest and being an ass.
i think i wind up being the ass more than i want to be.
safe travels.

Laura,

You are a wonderful light and your band is as nice, and approachable, as are you. I had a great time getting to know y'all in Negril. Here's to more good times and honest tunes. Love and BLESS UP!

Hey lil' sis. You sure have come along way since playing at Angelicas. I like to think I at least gave you a forum to come and keep it going as far as your live performances. Well, whatever you were doing it seems to have worked. I can't help but smile ear to ear when I hear you, Burns and Barrett on the radio. I'm so damned proud of you and miss you terribly. You were always a ray of love to me despite what was ever going on in my world. I think the world of you and you can always count on me loving you and championing your sound to anyone I meet.

Even in the midst of all the manic energy and sureal moments... you took the time to help this simple mom to help reach her dream... the compassion you shared through your funk and soul helped us to send a Tibetan activist to the Beijing Games... where he layed down under Mao Zedong's portrait covered in the Tibetan National Flag. Tashi Deleg, my dear! You will always have our heart and prayers here in Boonetown.. may all of you know that my daughters dance to your music everyday.. I know we will meet again as we dance and sing our way across this intricate web of life, causing a positive ripple to transend humanity - a step closer to the ultimate goal- world peace. No apoligies sister. I love you. Georgia.

Hello Laura Reed and Deep Pocket... Laura I got the chance to hear you and meet you for the first time at Got Rocks in Greenville SC back in Sept or Oct of this year... All I can say is AMAZING!!! You gave all you had to everyone in there and may I add that when I looked into your eyes I was amazed at the depth of your soul. I truly feel that for that brief moment I felt the sincerity of your soul because I am one who believes that the eyes are the windows that leads to the soul. I also came to the Handle Bar after work last night in the hopes of catching your set but I was too late and left feeling a little hurt because I was looking forward to hearing you guys for the second time... For me it takes a few times in order for me to get the fullness of anything. So hopefully I will catch you sometime soon. Even though I know how tiresome it can be to project your energy so that everyone can feel the love, please take some time to rejuvenate so that you can keep producing incredible music and continue to connect with people and learn from them as we all learn from you. From the sistah with the locks...

Peace and Love

Ms. Laura, you are truly one of the most beautiful people I have ever met. Can't imagine anyone ever being taken aback by a moment of frailty in you. You need those moments to be calm and remember who YOU are. Don't worry about us. We are simply blessed to have you in our universe. Whenever, whereever, we feel you. Blessings and peace to you, always.
