Live on WFMU with Gaylord Fields - October 5. 2014
Debby Schwartz
This Hoboken-based singer-songwriter has participated in a wide array of musical styles throughout her decades as a performing and recording artist, starting as the lead vox of the all-female Aquanettas in the late Eighties. But she's also a giving sort: When she's not exploring and sharing her own musical landscape, as found on her recently issued solo album, A Garden of My Own, she can be found backing artists including the progressive folk of P.G. Six and fellow acoustic goddess Ember Schrag. For this live session, there just might be a violin and/or a hurdy-gurdy giving her plangent voice and nimble guitar picking a suitable musical bed. Call her folkish, call her folky — but do know that Debby Schwartz is just plain good folks.

Thanks so much, Jeremy! We did a really nice version of it on the show.
That's great news, Debby - congrats. What a song.
Hi everyone: I'm happy to announce that my song "All to Become Somebody" from the WFMU session is being featured in the movie The Lives We Lead (written and directed by Davo Hardy), which can be purchased here: http://www.tlavideo.com/movies-the-lives-we-lead/p-369006-1. Many thanks to Gaylord, Mario, and WFMU (and, of course, Davo)! To hear the original version of this, or other songs in the pod...
Beautiful, spirited performances of songs from Debby's fantastic album!
