In Society we can feel so alone. There is a place we can go to that makes us feel safe. For most of us it is not physical, but can feel so real we don't want to leave it.

We find ourselves getting lost in the walls we have built for our safety. The greatest moments (and normally the scariest) are when we can let someone into our sanctuaries.

This is a view of my inner walls. Take a look through my stained glass past the masquerade at midnight.

Whether you like what you find isn't important. These are the inside of my walls. I just pray they move you to build your own Stained Glass Windows inside your own sanctuaries. Follow fluerdelis on Twitter
brinkmag: Amy LaVere at The Social, Orlando, Florida Our friends at The Social in Downtown Orlando are happy to welcome Amy LaVere to the stage December 8th. Here is a coffee break moment to get to know more about this rising independent music artist. Amy LaVere’s newest album Stranger Me is a melodic concoction of Blues, a hint of folk, and lyrics of a broken heart. While Stranger Me may intrigue you from start to finish, the stories behind the heartache album of the year are just as interesting as the woman singing them. Amy LaVere has been making music since 2005, while maintaining an acting career. (You may recognize her from “Walk the Line” and “Hustle and Flo.) The year 2009 was blow after blow at Amy’s music endeavors when her producer Jim Dickinson died followed by two of her bandmates leaving (one of which was her longtime boyfriend).  Despite everything, she used the creative process to make an album that critics are raving about for its raw honesty and portrayal of human emotion.   “The creative process stirs things up, and often makes things worse at first. I suppose by looking at things real hard you can sort them out clearer.”  Even though Amy is busy touring and promoting Stranger Me, she still manages to continue to act and collaborate with other artist, like Luther Dickinson, Shannon McNally, Valerie June and Sharde Thomas. Check out Amy’s Web page for a few songs you can look forward to at The Social on Dec. 8th! Make sure you keep a look out on BRINK’s Facebook for free tickets to the show! - Melody Austin
