I've just been in the habit lately of plugging one of my absolute favorite musical artists who, for some reason, is still terribly obscure despite downright amazing musical, lyrical, and emotive talent.

Chris Pureka's main website:

My latest blog about seeing her live here last Saturday (my third time seeing her):

And a preset YouTube search page with videos of her performances and music:

Seriously, she's a total treasure. Hope some of you enjoy the exposure to her. :)

Love that one! I only on this last show of hers, picked up her Dryland album...which I think may be her best just on the sheer volume of songs that are especially remarkable.

You're absolutely welcome! And, just when you think you like her, take the time to read her lyrics more in depth. It just adds another whole side to her story-telling.

Plus the fact that she just drips emotions when she's playing (whether the song is happy or melancholy).
