In 2007, Vinsantos was asked to record a track for an upcoming album based on the works of Judy Grahn, a pioneering force in our gay rights and lesbian feminist movements. Organized by Righteous Babe Records founder, Ani DiFranco, the project features interpretations of Judy's work by various artist such as Ani DiFranco, Ann Magnuson, Animal Prufrock, Debbie Bates and legendary actress Olympia Dukakis. Vinsantos was particularly drawn to the poem titled "Sheep", taken from the book The Work of a Common Woman due to its looming power and its perfectly musical meter. Along with bandmates Kenny (Girl) Annis, Randy Odell, Marc Kate, Susanne Ramsey, and an appearance by Monique Jenkinson, Vinsantos' interpretation of the legendary writer's words is an experiment in the dramatic and beyond haunting. Enjoy. |
