Moody neo-folk rock songwriter/vocalist Geri X skipped town last year to pursue a blossoming relationship and work the Milwaukee music scene. She returned with a brighter outlook, a boyfriend/band member, and a mission to make a career of her music in the city she had admittedly taken for granted. She re-submersed herself in the scene and returned to gigging regularly with her new three-piece, staged a re-launch party for her sixth album, Anthems of a Mended Heart, and played to a near 300 people, and produced and released a well-styled, well-made video for Kiss on Both Eyelids at a show featuring special guest artists who flew in for the occasion. Overall, she filled a hole we never even realized was empty. (Photo by James Ostrand.) myspace.com/gerix
