Lullaby Link

8, Nov 2009

It’s a good week for Laughing Tree Lullabies! We received an in-depth review today from Amy Robbins-Wilson on her Lullaby Link blog.  I think it’s the most thorough review we’ve received yet, and we’re grateful. Amy also interviewed me about Laughing Tree, and that interview will be posted on her site on Monday. …Their version [...]

Boutique shopping in the Chicago area

16, Oct 2009

We just had a great few weeks up in the Chicago area. We saw some good friends, had a lot of fun with my parents, and vegged out. We also visited a few great, little boutiques around the western suburbs that are now carrying Laughing Tree Lullabies, Vol. 1. If you’re starting your Christmas shopping [...]

Our Window

7, Oct 2009

An elegant, simple idea: Our friend Youngdoo from Seoul has recently begun posting weekly photo diptychs with her friend who goes by fiftyfootshadows. Their concept is simple. Weekly, they each choose a photo, place them side-by-side and let the interesting juxtapositions and serendipities arise. I love the collaborative idea, and I love the beautiful diptychs. [...]

The class of ’99

4, Oct 2009

This weekend, we attended my 10th high school reunion. In honor of my graduating class, here’s a blast from the past. -Jessica Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of 99… Wear sunscreen. If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The long term benefits of sunscreen have been [...]

Focus to infinity

28, Sep 2009

We just got a message from our friend Amber Hill who we met in Seoul. She left Seoul a little before us, but she ‘s back in Asia now, she’s taking gorgeous photos, and she’s posting them on her new photo blog. I love how Amber sees things. I think her eye is distinctly feminine. [...]

A symphony of vacuum cleaners

24, Sep 2009

Earlier today, we passed by the symphony building downtown and saw a girl entering with a vacuum cleaner. I immediately had this image in my head of a bunch of people up on the symphony stage, in their tuxedos, playing household appliances like they were classical instruments. More and more, I’ve been really digging on [...]

What is Laughing Tree, anyway?

22, Sep 2009

We had lunch today with Sam Davidson of Cool People Care (yeah, I know we’ve mentioned him a lot lately… he’s cool.). He helped us wrestle with the questions, “What exactly is Laughing Tree, anyway? What are we trying to do?” I thought you might have the same question, so let me share some things [...]

New Twist

20, Sep 2009

Today we visited several cool galleries in downtown Nashville and were heartened by the burgeoning local art scene! There’s some great stuff happening. Especially cool are the galleries in the Nashville Arcade off of 5th Avenue. We visited our friend Beth Gilmore who curates Twist Art Gallery on the second level of the Arcade. It’s [...]

Cutting through the noise.

19, Sep 2009

You’ve heard us talking a lot about our new record, Laughing Tree Lullabies, Vol. 1 this summer, but I realized that I haven’t really given a good reason why. Here are some of my thoughts about why I really think we have created something special and believe it’s worth your attention. First, I know that [...]

Lightfield: creativity is your gift

11, Sep 2009

Our friend recently hipped us to a great blog called Lightfield (www.whatislightfield.com) where they dig into a broad range of topics related to creativity, arts, culture, and responsibility to the world we live in. On their about page, they say, “Lightfield connects creatives and their art with the needs of others in our towns, cities, [...]
