Somewhere Between Heaven and Earth:
Grieving Out Loud
Cindy Bullens is a two time Grammy nominated recording
artist and songwriter whose career spans three decades.
Cindy has worked with Elton John, Bob Dylan, Bonnie Raitt,
Emmylou Harris and many others, and has recorded her own
critically acclaimed albums. One of Cindy's most acclaimed
works is 1999's Somewhere Between Heaven and Earth, written
and recorded in the first two years after the death, from
complications during treatment for Hodgkin's disease, of her
eleven year-old daughter Jessie. Cindy writes in her liner
notes from that CD:
"When my daughter Jessie died on March 23, 1996, just weeks
after her eleventh birthday, I felt my own life end. I
couldn't imagine that I could ever again be a productive
human being. That Iwould ever again write a song, let alone
record an entire album, was the furthest thing from my mind.
But about four months after her death — still numb with
disbelief — I found myself alone with my guitar, aimlessly
strumming chords just to hear the comforting sound of the
instrument. Without any thought on my part, a song
emerged...
...I have learned from my own grief and from those who have
suffered tragedy before me. There are only two choices for
those of us who are left behind-live or die-physically or
figuratively. Today I choose to live, inspired by the joy of
living that my little red-headed spitfire imbued in every
moment she was here on earth. These songs are from me and
for me, but if they touch anyone who has experienced
profound loss, I am grateful..."
Indeed, Cindy has touched thousands of people around the
world with Somewhere Between Heaven and Earth's inspired
songs of despair and loss, love and hope.
Cindy Bullens brings her human experience and musical talent
together in her unique workshop, Somewhere Between Heaven
and Earth: Grieving Out Loud. A bereaved mother's story
through word and song, told with heart and soul, and tears
and laughter. Music critic and author Dave Marsh says:"
(Cindy) remembered the lessons Jessie taught her, and, in
her child's spirit, she did the bravest thing she knew how
to do: she rose up, looked tragedy in the eye, and turned it
into art.
