The Plight of Cats Trapped in a Folk Music Environment
Today’s Cat Picture of the Day (not actually a thing, but we could make it a thing – maybe – what do you think?) was shared by one of my all time musical heroes, who I recently discovered is as awesome on Facebook as she is in song. That’s Janis Ian, who’s already my number one source for […]
