work with me. She is The Fairy Rock-Mother! ION exists as a projection of her love and vision for independent musicians. Although if you are reading this, you are already a part of the ION family! With nothing less than complete emotion, Kiki captures the beautiful agony involved with opening up your heart (in any capacity) to a world that has a history of destroying those who expose themselves.

One word escapes; an unanswered “Why?” Though not as a question, but more of a sigh A painful lament inside deeply stifled To whom it concerns, my feelings are rifled. Tears do not dampen the soul’s searing burn, What’s born in the heart can die in one turn. It’s said that time heals all strife and duress I’ll wrap up the tatters, the wounds I will dress. To whom it concerns, I’ll stand strong and bold, Scars are much tougher than gashes, I’m told For hurt serves as armor, my wisdom; my gate A layer so dense no one can abate. Though barriers guard against pain seeping in, To whom it concerns…my heart’s caged within. “Music isn’t what I do…it’s who I am. Music is a life force that beats within. It permeates the senses and encompasses the spirit. Music transcends. It heals the heart, purges the soul and provides refuge from pain. Music is immortal” ~The Fairy Rock Mother Into the sunset I shall ride with nothing but love by my side. Until the day I fail to die, dreaming awake I shall constantly strive.
