Music- and I will play
Robert LeBlanc, my guitar player, makes all my songs gorgeous. We threw together a sample of my song, Downpour, because someone asked me for it. It's super rough, but you can hear the beautiful guitar he's so generously added.

Downpour- Virginia Tingley (feat. Robert Leblanc) (with outtakes)

(Special note: I wrote this song, and thus named it, long before I cared about anything Panic related. Funny song name coincidence.)

We also recorded another version of Quiet People (Are Better In Bed), with two guitars and a little bit more funk.

Quiet People (Are Better In Bed)- Virginia Tingley (feat. Robert Leblanc)

So let me know what you think of both of those, if you will.

I had a really fun jam night tonight. We're getting songs ready to record the demo mid-August, and we've actually got some studio musicians who are adding things, such as drums to everything and piano to Quiet People.

I'm trying to get this all done before I ship off to the Caribbean.

(PS, because of The Ballad of Jensen and Jared, I have over 4000 plays on last.fm. This makes me grin like an insane woman.)

I am downloading both to listen to later, but I just wanted to say that I downloaded your version of "You Can't Always Get What You Want" aaaaaaages ago and it randomly shuffleplayed today! I had forgotten how pretty and awesome it sounded, so I just wanted to say yaaaay you and your pretty music making :D

"Downpour" is lovely, from the lyrics to the guitar (your voice is fantastic anyway).

And I didn't think "Quiet People" could be made even better (seriously, so much love for that song, it always makes me smile), but the second guitar definitely adds something.

I can hear by the Quiet People reboot that you've been listening to a lot of Sublime lately. this = awesome.

Jess, your opinion means so much to me. It makes my heart jump a little when you say things like that. I should be getting that demo track back from the studio soon. I can't wait for you to hear it.
