Amana Melome' Releases Her New Record "Recalibration"
Amana Melome' describes her new album Recalibration as an awakening, a realignment of self that unfolds gradually rather than all at once. Throughout this record, there is the sense of an artist stepping into a clearer understanding of her own voice, not through reinvention but through refinement. And the title perfectly fits this description: this is music shaped by reflection, growth and a renewed sense of direction.

The pier in Galveston that Hurricane Ike had half-demolished in 2008, leaving it suspended between existence and memory.

Would my life be better if I didn't drop out of high school? If I didn't take SSRIs and Zyprexa as a teen? If I worked hard to learn and refine my craft (or crafts) from the beginning instead of wasting my time on infatuations, lies, anger, politics, etc?
