Synopsis

Product Description

Using intimate live performances with fellow songwriters Sufjan Stevens and Denison Witmer as a pathway, All the Way from Michigan Not Mars is a meditative exploration of Rosie Thomas' work as it connects to her as a human being. Often raising more questions than answers, the film is a lyrical examination of Thomas' quest for an expression of truth and her unique brand of performance; combining songs of plaintive melancholy with sharpwitted banter and Sheila, her bizarre stand-up comedian alter ego.Featuring: Rosie Thomas, Sufjan Stevens, Denison Witmer and Sheila Saputo

CD Reviews

Beautiful raw LP. Like being in the room with them.

Luke Swantek | 12/15/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This record "Apartment Sessions" is basically the songs of Rosie Thomas' album "These Friends of Mine," the album recorded in an apartment with Sufjan Stevens and Dennison Witmer. This record is unique because it contains alternate takes. They are much more raw, but still very beautiful. The quality of the recording makes you feel like your sitting in the apartment with them.

Rosie Thomas has a beautiful voice and is greatly musically talented, and paired with Sufjan and Dennison, you have a wonderful combination.

And along with this vinyl LP comes the DVD "All the Way from Michigan, Not Mars," which is a great intimate look at Rosie Thomas and her life, personality, and music."
