Rachel C commented on Kim Fowler's blog post 'Mercyland w/Emmylou, Buddy, Carolina Choc Drops out April 10'

That's the longest title for a blog I've ever seen Kim. Next time you post, you need to specifically name the blog or it picks up the text like it did here. Hope all is well. EE

K Phillips - Debut

South Austin’s K Phillips is releasing American Girls on Feb 14, 2012. On this debut, there are no pick-up trucks, red cups, or girls in jean shorts. Phillips champions the desperate, the sleazy and the broken, with small-town murals that glimpse…
