Album Notes

"When the Kings and Queens Have Gone" is as diverse as it is charming, sweeping you away to sunny shores and cozy hometowns with songs like "It is Love" and "Splendid Today" and then diving deep into the heart with "Why" and the "Meaning". Her newest CD is sure to make you smile, think, and possibly even cry a bit, which is precisely what tasty music should do.

Annie grew up in a music and art saturated home. Harmonicas and pastels took the place of Barbie, and of that she is eternally grateful. She spent much of her time backstage at her parents' concerts, imagining magical worlds, napping in guitar cases, and playing with plastic dinosaurs. Since then she has traveled and sung all over the world, become a great fan of leg warmers, and has developed an uncanny magnetization towards ice creme. All of this comes out in her music and produces a lovely blend of old and new, sunny and soulful, unique and classic. Quite refreshing, indeed!
