Artist History Rearick began writing music in the early '90s when she and friends formed the widely respected circus-trance-rock outfit Your Mom SRO. Since then she has served as the band's principal songwriter, singer, keyboardist, and sometimes trumpeter. Several years later she branched out into solo work in order to explore a different side of her musical creativity. Rearick's solo writing tends to incorporate more classical elements and leans toward a more melancholy feel. She uses dissonance and unusual harmonies to create new and interesting soundscapes which are complemented by her flexible and warm-sounding vocals and thoughtful, literate lyrics. Rearick's new solo CD, "The Long Picnic" includes two cover songs -- a beautiful rendition of "Morpha Too" by Alex Chilton (from Big Star's "Radio City") and "Boating" by Bela Bartok -- which exemplify the range of Rearick's musical influences.
