Hello there and welcome to Corduroy Notes! I’m Deb, and Seattle is my home. Music is a big part of my day.  It is central to the best times of my life, and all of my favorite memories.

I love the visceral reaction we have to music — the way a song can immediately take you back to a time in your life, in a way that nothing else can.   With every show I attend, or every kitchen playlist I create, my life’s soundtrack is continually being written.

I’m not a journalist or a music critic.  I’m a lawyer and a mom.  I don’t know who the hot new bands are, although I’m always looking for new favorites.   I just listen to what I like.   And I like where music takes me, so I decided to write about it.
