Dee Timeless

SECOND LIFE:

Dee has been playing in SL as a solo acoustic guitar artist since June, 2010. She has played dozens of clubs and venues - always invited back. She has a moderate but hardcore following members in her group "Dee's Meepers!".

As opposed to many who simply strum, Dee is a well-seasoned musician who strives to be a whole band on one instrument, using a variety of styles to promote a strong-driving musical presence accompanied by a high-caliber unique vocal presence. People who hear her perform are impressed with the level of musicianship, and many are thrilled to hear great songs done right that they haven't heard in ages. She does a lot of songs that are extremely challenging, many of which will not be heard elsewhere on SL.

Material covered is a broad variety, brilliantly arranged for acoustic. It ranges from 60's through modern - mostly mainstream but adding in a few obscure selections. Dee tackles some rather complex arrangments like Classical Gas, and Steve Howe. A sample of artists covered includes Beatles, ELP, Radiohead, Fuel, Fleetwood Mac, Pink Floyd, SRV. Dee also has clever original songs - with many more on the way.

REAL LIFE:

I've played guitar and been in bands for 30 years, and made a living playing music in RL for about 9 years. I play bass, guitar, some keyboard, and drums, and sing. I was heavily influenced by Rush, Yes, Tangerine Dream, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, and so many others! I'm also a sound engineer and have done a good bit of recording. I am transgendered in RL, and so it should not come as a surprise that I have a female avatar, yet a singing voice which sounds mostly masculine.

What Else Is There? lyrics

It was me on that road

But you couldn't see me

Too many lights out, but nowhere near here

It was me on that road

Still you couldn't see me

 And the flashlights and explosions

Road's end getting nearer

We cover distance but not together

I am the storm, and I am the wonder

And the flashlights, nightmares, sudden explosions

I don't know what more to ask for

I was given just one wish

It's about you and the sun

A morning run

The story of my maker

What I have and what I ache for

I've got a golden ear

I cut and I spear

And what else is there?

Road's end getting nearer

We cover distance still not together

If I am the storm, if I am the wonder

Will I have flashlights, nightmares, sudden explosions?

I don't know what more to ask for

I was giving just one wish

Road's end getting nearer

We cover distance but not together

I am the storm and I am the wonder

And the flashlights, nightmares, sudden explosions

There is no room where I can go and

You've got secrets too

I don't know what more to ask for

I was given just one wish
