“‘Travelin’ Music’ was originally the intro to another song (and may yet be again). Some folks loved the intro better than the song it introduced, and so I wound up separating it for When The Winds Blow. Like a lot of stuff on the album it has little timing problems. But the voices tell me I could do tidy all that up in Pro Tools (something I didn't have the capacity or capability to do back in 2010 or 2011 when ‘Travelin’ Music’ was recorded. We'll see. This one might show up somewhere else, maybe with another song in tow. It might not.” ~ Wicasta Lovelace

When The Windws Blow was recorded in 2010 and 2011 in Saint Petersburg, Florida, and was released on May 1, 2011.
It was the culmination of a long journey for me and Victoria, in which we tried (rather unsuccessfully) to establish ourselves as an acoustic act in the Tampa Bay music scene. During the recording of the album I basically learned that I'm not really cut out for the acoustic thing, and you can feel it on the album. There's a lot of push and pull between songs that sat rather well as acoustic pieces, and other songs which seemed to want to be larger than that format allowed.
Victoria and I are both conflicted about this album. While we're fiercely proud of it, both of us concede the recording of the album was rushed and there are lots of mistakes which make us both twitch whenever we try to listen to it.
All that said, I think the album contained some great songs and I'm very proud of it. A lot was learned recording these songs, and the experience was vital to who I am now. But it would be fair to say that both Victoria and I regard the album as something of a failed experiment.
