Day 8: February 6th, 2010
Anna Maria Tocci

      Portland, Maine based songwriter and performer Anna Maria Tocci writes sweet, simple songs and lays them at the feet of her bandmates who jazz them up with phenomenal harmonies and instrumental parts. She joyfully performs with Ramblin' Red, an all female quartet that takes you down original folk roads with old-time twists and bluegrass turns, in funky dance-off shoes. Co-founder and former music director of the well-established folk music venue, The North Star Music Cafe, Anna Maria has recently moved on from that project to pursue a career in breath work, a powerful mind-body-spirit therapeutic process. With this career change, she is also re-discovering her love for songwriting which has lain dormant as she nurtured her dream business.

Timmy Riordan

     Timmy has been called ‘the hidden gem” of the Somerville/Cambridge music scene. In February 2009 he wrote and posted 28 songs on his website. This year he’s doing it again.  He has also decided there should be 8 day in a week (in honor of the Beatles of course) and has invited 32 of his songwriting friends to support him through the month by each writing a song themselves. Over the last summer he recorded 8 of those songs on a CD entitled “Peter Let Me In.” Each CD includes an original cover, hand-drawn just for you in Sharpie by Timmy. Proceeds from this hand-crafted album are all going directed to the making of “New York’s Ignoring Me” his next studio album to be released in summer of 2010.
