Live performance by Meaner Pencil
 
When she arrived in New York City, the city subway presented itself as the perfect performance cathedral. Her cello is the main tool she uses to lift musical spirits, although the overall tone of her tunes is quite sombre. Meaner Pencil's latest album, "Senza Amanti" is Italian for "Without Lovers". She writes, "These are pieces meant to be performed without lovers, and they describe a period of my life when I was trying to live alone, after severe heartbreak, in the hope of gaining a better understanding of myself." Meaner Pencil played live on Irene's show.

good afternoon, Irene and listeners!
thoroughly enjoying the music of Meaner Pencil!
SO TRUE! art can take you to a dark place . . . then bring you back :)
(having a really crappy/depressing day, so was already in that "dark place" -- but thanks to you and WFMU, feeling SO much BETTER now! ahhhhh the HEALING POWERS of MUSIC!!!)
and i LOVE the story of St. Wilgefortis! St. Dymphna is a favorite of mine, and being Hungarian, i adore St, Elizabeth of Hungary -- so i am surprised i have never heard of St. Wilgefortis before!
here is more about here from (of course, ha ha!) a Roman Catholic website:

I have had SVE's Are We There on endless repeat for days. The track you played, I Love You But I'm Lost, just wow. Such a perfect song.

Here is a live performance on WSJ of it

I was lucky to see Sharon here in DC a week ago. Just fantastic. I was wearing an FMU t-shirt and made sure to talk to her after the show. She was like, "Aww! FMU!!" :)
