Two Louies Magazine Anny and I go way back. I first met her during the Unreal Gods day’s in
Portland. Though I always knew she was a musician, I was never that familiar
with her music (sorry, Anny). When she invited me to the release party for
“Little Black Dress & Other Stories” I was curious. As fellow ex-Portlanders
living in Los Angeles I was interested to hear what Anny has been up to? Quite a
bit as it turns out. A trip to her web site
http://www.annycelsi.com filled in the gaps. In the classic
singer-songwriter mode, Anny’s sunny/dark folky-rock took me to a “Raymond
Chandler-esqe” Los Angeles of hard lessons learned and the high cost of love.
Dig it! It’s black and white 50’s film-noir in color. The sound clip of “Little
Black Dress” tells me it’s going to take a few listenings to decipher the crimes
between the lines on this one. Only the names have been changed to protect the
innocent (the guilty, I’m sure, are already in hell). Also dig the cool musical
company, Kevin “brother of Duane” Jarvis as well as Marvin Etzioni (Lone
Justice, Counting Crows). Ching, ching. |
