rachel was recently featured on austin community radio 90.5 KUT. after reading the introduction, you may listen to the player on the page and hear rachel answer questions, over way too much sake, regarding being a female in the music industry.  song clips are also included in the broadcast.

rachel has been performing live with her studio project all in the golden afternoon featuring herself and her soon-to-be husband, carlos jackson.  follow the link to hear new tunes and find out when they are performing.  an ep and lp of material is slated for 2008 on mind expansion records.

happy new year!  this holiday the song "christmas day" was released with other holiday-themed songs and covers on silber records' silber sounds of christmas.  a free download of the album is available via silber records.

in other news...a limited run of 100 copies of introducing rachel goldstar 2001-2005 cd is available via parasol.  the only other release of this album (a compilation of home recordings spanning 5 years) was a run of 50 copies sold on the california august 2006 tour.  those 50 had shoddy covers.  this new run of 100 has the same songs, but each cover is nicely hand printed by rachel.  there is nearly an hour of music for $6.25.  go get it!
