Singer-songwriter Cyndi Harvell has a new CD "From The Echo" which I have been listening to for a week or so and I really love it. While she was at CMJ in NYC, Cyndi stopped by the Norwood Club in New York's Greenwich Village to talk to me about the CD, her tour, and how she is handling the business of making music and promoting herself and the CD.
