All Six Senses is a journey of spiritual awakening. The journey is indeed the destination here, as each piece has its own deep resonance in the greater human experience. Distilled to its essence, the album is much about the nature of love- from open-hearted seeking ("First Sight"), to romantic complexity and longing - (If I could taste you one more time and had to leave my world to chance/ I just might close the door and spin the wheel of fortune - "All Six Senses"), to celebration ("Thursday Morning Afterglow"), and ultimately to the profound urgency of merging with God/dess - (I was bathing in the light/ Felt the sea run down my spine/ I could feel another time/ I could wait here one more night/ But no more, no more/ Gotta be right now - "I'm Coming Down"). These themes, loosely-yet-cohesively interwoven, emerge through a passionate medium of edgy rock, singer/songwriter lyricism and pop sense, and the sonic impact of chant. All Six Senses began to materialize in earnest in January 2002 when world-renowned producer Scott Mathews took a keen interest in the early demos that crossed his path (Scott Mathews has produced, written for, recorded with, or performed with artists as fabulous and diverse as George Harrison, Ringo Starr, Elvis Costello, Barbra Streisand, Semisonic, The Rubinoos, John Lee Hooker, Eric Clapton, John Hiatt, Patti LaBelle, Bonnie Raitt and many more.). Robin and Scott realized quickly that they were a good artistic match; the album was recorded during May 2002 in Scott's own TikiTown Studios in Mill Valley, CA. Not limited to a musical format, her essays have appeared in Blessed Bi Spirit: Bisexual People of Faith (Debra Kolodny, Ed., Continuum International, 2000) and That Takes Ovaries!: Bold Females and Their Brazen Acts (Rivka Solomon, Ed., Random House, 2002). Her poetry has appeared in journals including The New York Quarterly, Inciting Desire, OUT/LOOK, and Northeast Corridor. Always outspoken, Robin Renée stands to expand our collective vision of conscious emotion, sex and gender, and social activism. Her voice continues to be one of artistry, honesty, and a pervasive attention to Spirit. CONTACT: Menage a Music (BMI), P.O.
