MUSIC MONDAY: Listen to Uno Lady’s newest song up on Soundcloud

“Washed Away” was recorded by Christa (Uno Lady) Ebert January 2017. Song written by Christa Ebert, Anna Jo, and Marcus Trana during Dark Songs at the Holiday Music Motel, Sturgeon Bay, WI, October 2016.

The song is about the sea level rising and the islands and coastal habitats that are lost due to climate change.

The Holiday Music Motel is a magical place that  invites songwriters from around the world. Musicians travel to Sturgeon Bay to take part in the three songwriting festivals at the Holiday Music Motel (February’s ‘Love On Holiday,’  is happening this week! June’s ‘Steel Bridge Songfest’ and October’s  ‘Dark Songs’).  You can listen to the songs recorded at the Motel, year round at www.steelbridgeradio.com/listen

For the last three years I have participated in Dark Songs and a favorite from the last trip is “Washed Away.” It was co-written by myself, Anna Jonson who is a Wildland Firefighter and simultaneously the nicest and very badass, and Norway native Marcus Trana, recording engineer, entrepreneur and all around swell guy.

Thanks for having me, Akron

I had a great time playing at Hive Mind in Akron. Big thanks to HolyKindOf for playing and the rad folks at Hive Mind for having me.

If you haven’t already, check out Like a Villain (Portland), who also performed that night. It was the first show I have played (in 9 years!) where I was matched with a similar act (she loops operatic vocal).  It was mesmerizing.

Next Uno Lady show is this Thursday, November 17 at Happy Dog West.

I appreciate everyone’s birthday wishes. Pardon the delay in my gratitude. One of the most special things I got on my birthday were these galaxy Uno Lady prints from my cousin, Jessica Ebert.

If you’ve hung out with me in the past few weeks I probably forced you to look at a picture of this cake she made…ITS MAGICAL! She really is the best! Check out her blog here.

Last year, I received a magical gift when the Universe blew a balloon into my yard and my rose bushes caught it for me.

Awe! My garden caught this stragler balloon for my birthday. No joke! Thank you roses!
