FAWM.ORG | Helen

Artist Bio

Influences: PJ Harvey, Sleater-Kinney, Kate Bush, Blondie

There's something up with my hosting, I think. They play if you open the download mp3 in a new tab (or they do for me anyway) but they don't play nicely with the fawm player. Sorry 😞

FAWM number 14 for me.

I don't need people to thank me for song comments or even reciprocate. I'm happy with a pay-it-forward kind of thing.

Pronouns - she/her

Thanks for commenting on “Wandering.” So appreciated!
@zecoop Mar 6

It's all good... I'm only joking.
Kind of... 😉
No, really I am.

Have fun gigs and practices!
@zecoop Mar 6

How's Fifteen looking? Anything clicking yet? Ahem... I mean... take your time... no rush... 😉
@billwhite51 Mar 6

several of your songs will not play in my computer
@stephenwordsmith Mar 5

Yes, please.

I think it's the best thing I've written this year, and, bizarrely, it was the most ignored. Happy to wait as life is giving me plenty to worry about in the interim 😀
@zecoop Mar 4

Thank you so much! I can't wait to get over there sometime. That date wouldn't have worked anyway, as I am seeing Bob Mould on March 27th and Michael Buble on March 31. (those two shows make sense together, right?) 😉
@guatecoop Mar 3

I’m shouting! Yes please!!
@bronnyd Mar 2

hey thank you for your comment on Friend 😀 I'm listening to other fawmer's songs on my day off today and will take a listen to yours shortly
@zecoop Mar 2

Hey there Helen - Thanks for the listen! Absolutely... The songs don't die after FAWM, since all mine go on the Bandcamp album. So, I would love for you to add a vocal/vocals. Let me know if you need me to send a DAW ready version. Also, can you send me the vocals for the other one you did? I'll be starting to remix and master for the album. 😀
@katmtl Feb 29

Do you collaborate? Here’s my email if you ever wanna jam! Kmariemusic48@gmail.com😎😎😎
@katmtl Feb 29

Hey there! Thanks for listening to Pikachus Revenge. ❤️❤️❤️
@katmtl Feb 29

Hey there! Thanks for listening to Pikachus Revenge. ❤️❤️❤️
@expendablefriend Feb 28

Cheers, and you! I'd still be 5 songs short were it not for your assistance 😀
@moonraccoon Feb 26

Thanks. I wonder how @cairobraga will make out with his bookend morph, when my lyric accidentally echoes his, but much more negatively.
@kahlo2013 Feb 23

Thanks, Helen, for checking out Pandemic Panic. I love the music. I’ve been on eight flights within past 3 weeks and while I don’t want to give into any pandemic panic I was more on edge flying given the many influenza, norovirus, and coraonoviris outbreaks. Sorry one of the many viruses found you! Hopefully it will leave soon!
@postcardhelicopters Feb 22

Yep - mostly I just stretched it out very long, and then when I started hearing the "cats" complain I added that bit of wandering melody near the end. Posting shortly!
@gwyn1234 Feb 22

Cheers for your encouraging remarks...very much appreciated!
@sph Feb 21

Can't say more because of #no-apologies-no-excuses 😉
@sph Feb 21

Thanks for your words on "Martha". I must confess I'm a bit nervous with song - but think it's ok to show it now to the FAWM world and rework it later.
@expendablefriend Feb 19

Ha!
@expendablefriend Feb 19

Sometimes I need to eat.
@wacha Feb 16

Thank you for the very kind words on "Just to Want More"!
@guatecoop Feb 16

Well, as they say you can’t rush perfection.....hahaha
@guatecoop Feb 16

Oh no worries or hurry! And yeah, if by epic you man long? ☑️
@berni1954 Feb 13

Glad you liked my arrangement of Arthur's "Universal Thoughts"
I have just been bowled over by your "Recovery".

I'll be back for more (after I make lunch. I have a hungry teacher heading my way after a hard morning's work with adolescents 😁 )

Ooops. I just read your comment about not needing to thank you for a listen.... 😁😈
@pvk2020 Feb 12

Thanks for your comments 😀
@fiddlerblick80 Feb 11

I'm well, currently in sunny (rainy right now?) San Diego and uploading mp3's after some wine? So I'm fantastic...
@fiddlerblick80 Feb 11

Hey there! How are you?
@guatecoop Feb 10

OHHHHH man....RAWK!!🤘
@guatecoop Feb 10

Hey Helen.........
Would you be interested in doing some vocals on this?
https://fawm.org/songs/103694/
@mariekevinkmusic Feb 7

Ooooh...yes please. Mock away. I tried to stick to a click track but I don't think I have been very precise 😞
@julesbf Feb 6

Thanks for the fyi, I rushed when loading the song in 😀
@auditasum Feb 6

Thanks for your comment on "Getaway." The location is the road en route through southern Ohio and West Virginia toward the Carolinas. 😀
@valeriecox Feb 6

Ooh ooh...thanks for commenting. 😝
@wacha Feb 3

Thanks for the kind words on "The Legend of the Snoggin Boggin".
@owl Feb 3

Hello! Thank you for commenting on "Squid Linguistics"! And for the reassurance that we aren't horrible cheats.
@inger Feb 2

I'm happy with pay-it-forward myself too, but I'm still going to thank you 😝 So... thank you!
@expendablefriend Feb 2

Too late now!
@megsongs Feb 2

Hello, I'm back! Impressed you have one up already! I have a couple brewing...
@calumcarlyle Feb 1

One song already? I am going to need to catch up on my listening as well as my songwriting! Have a great FAWM, Helen, i always enjoy your work.
@brownium Jan 31

No, Kiri Te Kenawa didn't sing my song, but I sure wish she would. Even so, it's among my favorite lyrics that I've written:

Just wrote another song, uses all three chords
Changing up the rhythm so we won’t get board
Scratch that, we’ll just play the same thing
It’s not like Kiri Te Kenawa gonna get up and sing

https://brownium.com/BrownianMusic/20...
@zecoop Jan 30

No worries! Just making my last check ins for that. Hopefully I can come up with something in the standard way to send you. 😎
@zecoop Jan 30

Hey, I just noticed that you are on my 4-track address list - Any interest in doing that this year? I'm setting up the tape lists now.... Let me know! 😀
@valeriecox Jan 30

I expect 14 songs in the first day. You can do that right? OK, cool. I'll look forward to it.
@thelowestbitter Jan 27

Hi Helen, hope you have a fantastic FAWM!
@julesbf Jan 26

Hi Helen, happy fawming 😀
@andygetch Jan 25

Hey Helen have a great FAWM!
@zecoop Jan 24

Happy FAWM to my (new to me) favorite Mod!! 😉 I'd love to try to collab this year, as I always love your stuff both here and with GDJ. We've got some overlapping interests too. And you've done stuff with my brother, so i know you are cool. I have no plans for my FAWM, but thought I'd throw that out there. 😀
@brownium Jan 23

Hey - welcome back. See you on the dark side.
@guatecoop Jan 23

Hey there! I have no idea what you’re going to do, but I’m sure that I’ll like it. It’s nice to see you around here. Best wishes to you and happy fawming.
@stephenwordsmith Jan 22

Always a pleasure to see your name. I wish you well in your songwriting and commenting efforts this year.
@cynthiawolff Jan 20

Oh boy can’t wait to hear your newly hatched jewels..
Been playing the crap outta “A Better Day”
Thanks for writing such cool songs
@nancyrost Jan 19

Looking forward to listening and reconnecting this February. Maybe a collab too, time permitting!
@sapient Jan 19

H! 😃😃😃
@unpronounceable Jan 17

Check out those rawk hands! 😀
@auditasum Jan 16

Welcome back! 😀
@expendablefriend Jan 16

😁
@johncrossman Jan 16

Hiya Helen, happy to see you, as always!
@tsunamidaily Jan 14

have the best FAWM this year!
@tcelliott Jan 13

I absolutely loved what you did with "I Don't Blame You" last year. If I get an idea can I send you another guitar track for collaboration this year?

Also, I hope you're around and having fun and here's to a great Fawm.
