My first Rally this year and I went to a panel of TAXI members sharing their success. That evening and next day, I could not get Helen Austin's "Happy" out of my head. Since then, I've bought her album for myself and a few Christmas presents. All I can say is :WOW! She is utterly amazing! Contagious songwriting at it's best. Did anyone else make any discoveries at the Rally? My shout out to Helen Austin- You have a new,HUGE fan after this Rally!

Hi C4ward!

I couldn't agree with you more - I stumbled on to Helen's blog a few days before the Rally and started checking out her songs/videos.
I couldn't get "Perfect Girl" out of my head for about five days straight!

I met her during the Rally and expressed my sincerest admiration. Love her melodies and her backing vocals!

Hi CrimsnSyrn.
Very cool! I highly recommend getting her CD "Song of the Week." I keep getting new "favorites" on it.

Hi, I've been thinking about re-joining Taxi after like a 12 year hiatus.

I came across this post and seems to be a good starting point for my questions.

Where are the listings for Music like Helen Austin's?

I've googled a lot of the "sounds like" artists from the current listings and just keep on scratching my head.

Thanks for any wisdom.

Tim,
I'm new here and don't have the answer. I just heard herat the Rally and bought her CD from Amazon. Maybe someone else can chime in.

hello!

All I can say is thank you SO much!!!!! I am blown away by these posts

I hope you had a fabulous time at the Road Rally and I'll see you there next year!

Geez. Nothin? Nobody? not even Helen?

I 125% agree!!! There were maybe 5 songs played that might have been immediate hits and once I heard Helen Austin's, it just popped and was by far the best!

I'd say Helen's stuff would easily fit a la Ingrid Michaelson or Regina Spektor and the like.

Great stuff Helen and congrats on your success!

I agree!
Helen is amazing!
May be she occupies not the second place after the rally, but the third. After my girlfriend

Tim,
Sometimes listings go in cycles. Sometimes you will find like 3-4 listings like music for Helens and then there's a month-long break when there aren't any.

I don't know if that answers your question at all. At least that's what I have observed from personal experience. You should definitely consider rejoining. I think it's worth it:)

Best,
Jenna
