Emma Ninel has this song on the Violet Femmes Compilation CD. This video for the song was recorded in September 2007 in Denmark. I live in a small town outside Copenhagen. we shot the pictures at the "Viking Town". The Danes are known for the Vikings, and here there are some buildings from that time. It hasn't that much to do with the title of the song, but it is a beautiful spot. Enjoy!

Two Tall Women-Something You Said
Here is Beth singing 'Something You Said', it's not the version on the CD, it was recorded with Two Tall Women at the Beaumont Studios in Vancouver.
This song will be recorded for Beths new CD to be released in 2008.
Beth Southwell, Elise and I on COOP Radio
Last night, Sunday, Nov. 25th, Beth, Elise and I appeared alongside host Jeannie Mark on The Women's Storytelling Show on CFRO 102.7 fm, Vancouver's Coop Radio.
We were telling the story of the evolution of Violet Femmes. Beth sang her heart out live in the studio, as Elise provided her gentle violin fills and solos. The two elements made for a marvellous mix in the small studio setting.
Jeannie featured several tracks from the Violet Femmes Compilation CD. We heard from Edmonton's trio, Asani, groovetronic Ellee Ven, Denmark's enigmatic Emma Ninel and Florida's healing angel, Krishna Rose.
I would like to thank Jeannie and sound tech Padma for their generous hospitality and the opportunity to share all the exciting news of the upcoming showcases featuring artists from the Violet Femmes Compilation CD. It is great to speak with others as enthusiastic about the talent on the CD as I am.
We are looking forward to our rock/pop artists coming to Vancouver to perform at the Red Room on Richards St in February and March of 2008. Adriana Lorenzi from Venezuela is confirmed for March 15th. You can see her video at www.violetfemmes.ca/Home

Emma Ninel and Beth Southwell
We had a magical evening of music on Wed, Nov 21st. We gathered at the Vancouver East Cultural Centre to hear the first of the Violet Femmes showcase concerts.
Emma Ninel travelled from Denmark with the amazing Gustaf L, lapsteel player extraordinaire.
Beth Southwell literally lives around the corner from the Cultch, so it was a short journey to the stage for the first set of the night. Beth had her new band with her and they shone brightly for this, their first performance together. Elise on violin, Wayne on drums and Bahiyyih singing angelic back up vocals made a sweet addition to Beth's well crafted songs. Jesse Waldman joined them on guitar for the last three songs, adding punch and charisma.
Beth sang with total commitment and moved the audience with her unique song styling, phrasing and emotional depth.
Emma took her audience into the silence, as she requested no applause for the first part of her set. Emma played the VECC's grand piano and it seemed a waterfall of sound was cascading, surrounding the audience, a sensation that rose and fell with her soulful, healing vocals. Emma heals the soul with her simple, haunting melodies.
It was Emma's birthday, so we finished off the evening with a beautiful birthday cake, candles and all. After blowing out her candles, Emma treated us to an acapella version of 'One Little Spark."
The audience exited to the foyer where cake was enjoyed by one and all.
