Hey Seela, it's Doug from IUP. Ring a bell? I really like your site and am ordering your CDs.

I can't tell you how cool I think it is that you performed with Ian McLagan. Too bad you couldn't have performed with Ronnie (RIP).

I'm in Seattle now, maybe I'll catch you performing up here some time?

I saw you at this place and all these airwaves were moving and you said all those things and I sipped my drink and then you sung and I woke up and here I am. Then I had warm wine for breakfast and my pee was clear. (it still is)

renee - Monday, November 7th, 2005 7:58 PM
hi seela, just checked out your website and listened to some of you music. it's awesome. i will be seeing you at cedar street on the 8th of Nov.
Deeme - Wednesday, October 26th, 2005 9:11 AM
Hi Seela, I was just at William and Mary Homecoming and the kids there let this ex-dj alum do a radio show at the college station, WCWM 89.1 fm, so of course I had to play a cut from you ("Under The Influence"). I will be in San Antonio over Thanksgiving so I hope I can catch one of your gigs.
Lee Walker - Monday, October 17th, 2005 7:42 PM
Just got back on-line recently so just sent a long email through your site. You, Jon, and Chris helped make Karen and my 36th anniversary extra nice at an early Cedar Street performance. Live music is so fine and you three dished out two lovely sets! We were down for our daughters wedding and stayed a couple of days after which set us up to get to hear you there.

Loved the music, the relaxation and the visit.
Lee
Nichole "nichote" Jenkins - Monday, September 12th, 2005 10:47 PM
Everytime I hear your music it blows me away. It brings back memories of a good friend, good food and especially great music. I didn't think it was possible for your songwriting to get better, but it has!!! I wish you every good thing and more.
Kim Walker - Thursday, September 8th, 2005 1:21 PM
I heard you in Austin sept 6 at Cedar Street. I was blown away. We bought two CDs then and played them all the way back to Mississippi - now I want the others. Keep writing and performing for us - you are something new and wonderful.
Kim

SriSeela - Saturday, August 6th, 2005 3:15 AM
even my lastname goes same... will try to listen to the songs sometime...
Trevor Seela - Tuesday, July 12th, 2005 10:13 AM
I've listened to a few of the songs over my lo-fi dialup connection. In truth, I just searched my last name and this was the first website that popped up (just one of those concieted things I do on boring afternoons). I looked around and fell in love with the music. I've never been down to Texas (I'm stuck up here in Iowa) but you've got fans up here too.
LEE WALKER - Friday, May 20th, 2005 3:42 PM
Dear Seela,
On the last trip my wife and I made to Austin to see our daughter the three of us came to hear you at the Elephant room. I am a jazz fan and you and Torch were just terrific. You have a very special sound that is quite intimate...There is a little touch of air that seems to open up the sound for your personal music. This is hard to describe but it reminds me a little of the very human touch that Stan Getz' breathiness gave to his sax. It is not the same but it has a similar effect...almost like a touch of air through the vocal cords before vibration begins..a sort of opening up. At any rate, it was a delightful evening and you stopped to let me ask a question or two between sets. It is so good to her good music in a space that allows for direct hearing beyond the decisions of a sound board tech as to what someone else's ear determines what is right for the listener. This was real sound...music without a net, and that is real jazz.
I want to get a CD of the songs you and Torch did so splendidly and I think that most of those are on, Before the Night is Over.
I wish we could hear you this trip but I undertand that Torch is in Japan. Someday I would love to buy you a cup of coffee and have you join Karen and me for just a plain old "get to know you" visit. I like free-lance writing and would love to work on a story about you, your sound, Torch and young jazz with sophistication that is such a treat. Keep up the singing, the openess and the writing.
Yours,
Lee Walker
Barbara Foley - Monday, January 31st, 2005 7:17 AM
Hi Seela! I finally made it up to your website...cute! We will try to make your CD party on the 15th. Hey, I know a wonderful dentist--Joan Sefcik--you probably already found one by now but in case, she is unbelievable. I've never in my life had fun at the dentist--but she makes me laugh every time. And she's a great dentist! Dula shared your new CD with me--Brad & I both love it.
Hope to see you soon, Barbara
Frank - Monday, December 20th, 2004 2:48 PM
I just wanted to say that I was extremely excited to hear your music last week while being interviewed by the Trinity Jazz Station 91.7. So much so, that I just sat in my car during the entire interview instead of going in to my fitness center! Thanks not only for the chance to hear an incredible voice, but because I was able to put off my workout for a while! I hope to see you perform at Luna's in the near future. Thanks,I'm a new fan.
Frank
Lisa - Wednesday, December 15th, 2004 2:38 PM
Got the new TOrchH cd. It's wonderful. Looking forward to the next gig at the Elephant. Thanks for sharing your gift with the world.
Henry Ross - Tuesday, December 14th, 2004 4:46 PM
Heard you at the Elephant room last night and dropped you a compliment (guy in red shirt). Liked your music and your style of singing.....--I'll see you on Sunday and you have a pretty kosher web site. Later Henry

Lisa - Sunday, November 14th, 2004 5:50 PM
Great to see you at Cafe Mundi the other night. Really enjoyed it. Hope to catch you and Torch in the very near future. Also enjoying your KUT cd that I purchased. See you soon! -L
Sanju - Friday, October 29th, 2004 1:41 PM
I bought your WKUT Live CD from CDBaby and have been meaning to write in and tell you how powerful and enjoyable the CD is. I have it in my car and I love listening to it. Thanks for the great music! Looking forward to seeing you again soon.
Deeme - Thursday, October 28th, 2004 11:07 AM
Seela, I saw you for the first time recently in D.C. with Matt the Electrician and enjoyed our talk. I was blown away by your voice and presence. Your cd "Hard Times Hit" is powerful and inspired me to write some lyrics again. Lines like "when you comin' home ain't soon enough" are real gems. Thanks.
Nancye - Monday, October 11th, 2004 8:10 PM
I was very fortunate to see you at Dan and Liz's House Concert, my first, you and Matt were wonderful. Bought your CD and love it. Thanks for a great night.
amy - Thursday, September 30th, 2004 7:09 AM
I feel so fortunate that you'll be travelling to Rhode Island for a show. How lucky I am to see you perform with Matt!
dan of the deej - Wednesday, September 29th, 2004 9:23 PM
we can't wait to see you again!
Shawn Cook - Saturday, September 25th, 2004 7:36 PM
Hi, caught you in Denton, TX about 2 months ago or so. Liked what I heard, bought a CD. When will you be back in this area?
laura escamilla - Thursday, August 5th, 2004 9:14 PM

Joseph Sherman - Monday, April 19th, 2004 3:30 PM
Hey, Everybody try and listen to Seela this Sunday on KUT and if you have a little spare change, maybe consider donating a couple of bucks to the KUT Spring 2004 Fundraising Campaign or just send the station an E-mail to say thanks for playing Seela. Either way, don't forget to listen.
Amy - Monday, April 19th, 2004 9:27 AM
I'm planning this kick ass trip to Austin and I can't wait to see you live on May 14....
You rock!!
Christina Martin - Thursday, April 15th, 2004 5:20 PM
I finally got your CD 'hard times hit" in the mail today. How sweet it is! Your music makes me want to get off my ass and make another album! I love it so much, that I can't seem to study for my History exam tomorrow. Sometimes when you hit something good you've gotta GO WITH IT!!!!!!
Ashmita - Sunday, April 11th, 2004 8:33 PM
Thanks Waterloo Records for your listening stations that allow badass artists such as Seela to reach out thru headphones and pick up new fans...

Becky Brown - Friday, March 26th, 2004 1:34 PM
While on a trip to Texas from Chicago, a friend and I went to Saxon Pub to catch Bob Schneider March 22nd. I love your voice and hope to be able to catch you again. If you're ever in the Chicago area, let me know. There's a club west of downtown Chicago that I frequent and booked bands. I'd love to help you share your voice.
Das - Tuesday, March 23rd, 2004 6:16 PM
The songs on Hard Times Hit have a way of sneaking up on the listener from behind and almost engulfing him slash her in the debris left over from heartbreak, heartache and acid reflux?? The songs are not as rudely seering as the ones on Something Happened but have a softer, even sweetly melodic feel. The title track lives up to its promise of sardonic melancholy. I'm Coming Over is soothing. I Told Everybody is refreshingly different. But perhaps the best song on this CD is Nothing On You which lives up to its promise of letting the listener "come away with a smile".
marianna - Sunday, March 7th, 2004 7:15 PM
this music is truly otherworldy. reminds me of a place i've never been that sort of feels like home.

you guys rock.
Conny - Friday, February 13th, 2004 3:25 AM
Hi Seela,
It was a real surprise to find out that there is another Seela in this world. One with a great voice! I really like your music and if you ever come to the Netherlands, Europe, let me know!! Greetings from the mom of Seela, born on the 14th of september 2002.

Jennifer - Monday, January 26th, 2004 12:44 AM
Hi Seela it's your sister in law! Just lookin around your website and thought I'd say hi! Hope everything is going well and tell my brother I say hi!
Steve Morales - Sunday, January 25th, 2004 11:43 PM
Visiting a friend in San Antonio this past weekend, went out to LUNA Jazz Club. Your's is a Voice from the past, truely one of the best Jazz vocals in years and the band Torch is top notch. Looking to forward finding your CD's and listening to you live back home in Austin. ..Thx Again, Steve
Mike Jerkovich - Sunday, January 25th, 2004 2:17 PM
Hey, wish we could hear your band. You have picked a name (why) that is my last name. My grandparents are from Croatian.
jt - Saturday, January 24th, 2004 9:22 AM
Heard Seela on KUT for first time....needless to say, all work immediately came to a halt during the performance
Spinner - Monday, January 19th, 2004 12:01 PM
Your sister Amy first introduced me to Seela while we were in college together. I feel in love with the CD and have been keeping up with Seela ever since. Your music is very inspirational and have helped me through many tough times. I look forward to when I can actually see you perform in person!
Amy (little sis) - Tuesday, December 30th, 2003 6:57 AM
It seems like a lifetime ago that Huck & Muck songs were reigning my stereo speakers...and now my big sister's voice is. How awesome is that? I love every cd...and am very proud of you. Can you have sweatpants made up with "seela" printed across the butt?
Alicia - Monday, December 29th, 2003 9:02 PM
I'm 16 and from KC,Mo. I love the CD!
Bonny Holder - Sunday, December 14th, 2003 11:51 AM
Seela, it would be great if you could post a holiday download on your site. Bonny in NM

PJ Barnes - Monday, November 17th, 2003 8:47 AM
I was able to catch you at the Susan G. Komen Volunteer Party and you are absolutely wonderful. I will definitely check you out at other venues.
Mark Lee Corey - Tuesday, October 28th, 2003 3:57 AM
I'm not sure why but, I just woke up here and my roof is in the street again and I'm convinced that I love your music +++
Fan - Wednesday, October 8th, 2003 11:42 PM
This is to let Seela know that I'll try to be there for the Cafe Mundi gig even though I've missed so many of your gigs recently. This is also to say hi to Christina Peterson - the hyper gal who wanted to buy a vaio from me. If you are reading this, the offer is still on. Also, isn't Seela the common denominator? Seela rulez!!
jimbrent - Tuesday, September 23rd, 2003 10:03 PM
I got my CD's from CDBaby today. Just unwrapped Torch and gave it a spin. Wow. Seela...uh...I'm very impressed, to say the least. First came "Open Heart," now this. Keep it coming. I won't tell Kelly that the studio it was recorded in is named after a spider...she might retract her Diana Krall comparison.
jimbrent (identity crisis solved!) - Tuesday, September 16th, 2003 7:44 AM
I'm a slack- ass. Here it is September and I haven't purchased jack-squat from CD baby...so it's my fault if you don't get on the compilation CD. So, off I go to CD BAby now to add to my Seela collection plus get enough to add to my friends' collections whether they like it or not.
Danielle Williams` - Monday, September 1st, 2003 2:09 PM
Hi Seela, been to a few of your shows and seen you with Matt, you are wonderful. Keep up the good work!
Sara -N-Bill in California - Thursday, August 21st, 2003 9:56 PM
SOOO glad you came to Sacramento with Matt the Electrician! We really loved the show! What a fantastic voice! Hope you & your hubby are healthy & happy!
Donny - Thursday, July 24th, 2003 8:35 AM
Saw you at the Harmony Grits show in Greenville, SC. You were great. I'd love to see you around here again on a solo tour.
Katie - Thursday, July 17th, 2003 1:28 PM
Great show with Matt the Electrician last night. Thanks for the entertainment.
maria - Wednesday, June 18th, 2003 8:44 AM

Fan - Saturday, April 26th, 2003 5:17 AM
What about having a mailing list for your gigs? Torch is super!!
Anon - Saturday, April 26th, 2003 5:14 AM
Why aren't you more famous than Ani Di Franco?
DF - Tuesday, April 8th, 2003 1:17 PM
Serendipity led me to your TOrcH CD on cdbaby.com - I clicked in the wrong place which actually turned out to be the right place. Looking forward to giving the CD a spin!
Jay - Wednesday, March 19th, 2003 10:22 PM
Great music!! I've seen you live twice now and hope to see you all more!

Amanda - Saturday, December 21st, 2002 10:23 PM
I was driving into Austin from BTR this evening to be with my sister and her family for Christmas, when I tuned into 90.5 FM and heard your music and interview. You are absolutely fabulous! I am so happy to have discovered your music. Thank you for sharing your talent.
Rhonda - Saturday, December 21st, 2002 6:26 PM
I agree with Angela & Tahmina. Seela, you are a great sounding, genius.
Angela and Tahmina - Thursday, December 19th, 2002 9:41 PM
We love your site. Seela is a witty chic! Genius! Oh yeah, and she can sing too...:)

Tahmina adds her "Applejuice!" stamp of approval.

Kerry MacQueen - Sunday, December 15th, 2002 1:15 PM
Hi Seela,

I saw you at a little club in downtown Toronto, 1996 or 7 during the North by Northeast festival. I loved your performance and bought a cd from you that night. I just pulled it out of my old cd case that has been tucked away for years. I remember now how much I loved your songs and how meaningful they were to me at the time. Funny thing is, when I listen to them now, they are just as meaningful and special, but in a totally different way.

Thanks for the songs.

Kerry
Guissepe Vincenzo Casile - Saturday, December 14th, 2002 6:12 PM
When I saw your photos on your CD promotional material, I was in love. I was sad to find that you are happily married. Do you have a sister?
