It's been a little quiet around here lately and for good reason. Remember Cocoon Girl? Well that's just where I've been; deep in my cocoon whilst morphing my dreams into something tangibly beautiful. That's what life is all about, right?
I am extending an invitation to you to join me here on my blog as I create my next album. Step by step, I'll be documenting my writing sessions, recording sessions, PR campaign, and tour right up until my big release concert here in Utah. My hope is that this journey will in turn spark something within you to conjure up and play out your own dreams, which I would love to hear about in turn.
It all starts this Saturday, Oct. 10th, in the lovely Portland, Oregon. We'll be shooting the photography for my album cover and new website. I want to introduce you to one of my favorite photographers who has shot bands like the Cranberries and Wilco among others for Rolling Stone Magazine. Will you join me? Uh oh. I feel some serious excitement coming on. This is going to rock!
Allen, James on Dreams

I'm so excited Mindy! Keep AZ in mind when you make your tour list!
ReplyDeleteI am beyond thrilled to follow along on this journey to a new album. How exciting!
ReplyDeleteThis is SO exciting! We can't wait to hear your new album! Thank you for the amazing music that fills our home.
ReplyDeleteCongrats! Where in Portland are you shooting at?
ReplyDeleteWOW! So you have your family, you started school, and you are going to release a new album soon?!?!?!? How do you manage to have enough time for everything??? You are awesome!
ReplyDeleteMindy,
ReplyDeleteKristy Nelson Hafen here. I am so amazed by all the incredible people I went to school with. You very much included! Would you try to put St. George on your tour. I would love to see you. With three little ones going anywhere for a concert is next to impossible. We always have so much going on. If not I will just have to leave them all here and do a girls trip. I am so glad to see you are doing well.
I am RSVPing. I'll be there...or here, rather?
ReplyDeleteI've never commented before, but have followed your blog for a little while. I spent many a summer in Portland as a child visiting my grandmother, and one of the favorite places to this day is the International Rose Test Garden in Washington Park. It's not nearly as gorgeous now as it is in mid-summer, but if you have an afternoon free, go see it...you won't be disappointed! And Powell's Books is amazing - I could get lost there. I'm excited for some new music, but I do love what I've been able to download of yours. What a beautiful voice :)
ReplyDeleteHi Mindy!! I am a huge fan, and I am so excited to hear that you will be releasing a new album soon!! I love reading your blog because I love your music so much. I am excited to read future posts about everything forthcoming and to maybe share some of my own experiences with you. And thank you again for posting about the album Nearer. "Be Still, My Soul" that you arranged and recorded is beautiful!! I downloaded the album and love it!! Thank you again for your inspiring music, I am an LDS YSA and really appreciate the fresh take on inspirational music that you have, so I can not wait to hear what you have in the works :)
ReplyDeleteoh, ever thought of coming to Texas, maybe on your tour??? I live in San Antonio.
ReplyDeletewe have a gorgeous Temple here :)
Mindy...please add to your calendar: Cure cancer next Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much.

Mindy,
ReplyDeleteNeed any back up singers? Can you make a stop to the East Coast (say Raleigh, NC?)
;-) ;-)
My husband's dream has always been to have a family indie band... I am so excited to be involved in any way with this new album of yours. I have always been so curious about how this type of thing is done. It will a fun ride I am sure.
I think I dream about having a clean house...
Yippppeeeee!! A new album!! And we get to follow along! Thanks for the invite... I accept! :-)
ReplyDeleteHow fun will this be? Thanks for inviting us to join you! I can't wait!
ReplyDeleteI think that is exciting and amazing. I love your music, especially the last album. Looking forward to this one! Cheers!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your journey with us Mindy. You are loved around the world, and it is so fun to see where you take us with your music with each new album. My two favorite songs of yours are If I Had No Songs and Small Enough...Have a beautiful weekend.
ReplyDeleteawesome! how fun!
