Hi, Merfolk ~
I'm delighted to join this mer community! I am a singer-songwriter/filmmaker/fish trainer. My husband, Stu, and I are the founders of Neptune's Keep (www.neptuneskeep.net (http://www.neptuneskeep.net)), the world's only fish + humans quartet. We are dedicated to promoting ocean conservation and animal welfare through entertainment.
For several years I've been making music with goldfish and dancing with seahorses, so I've felt like a mermaid for awhile. Now I am taking the plunge into professional mermaiding! It seems a natural extension of our performance art. I've written several mermaid songs, and these, along with other water-themed tunes, form the basis for our new show, City Beneath the Sea. Stu and I will appear as Mermaid Dionea and Salty Stuart the Pirate for landlocked concerts and typical mermaid-in-water venues/events.
In the meantime, Neptune's Keep performs locally in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area, and we have a web concert coming up on April 27 - probably the world's first live-streamed fish music concert! I'll post a more detailed notice about it soon. (Moderators, where should I post that?)
I've just ordered my first tail from Once Upon A Mermaid on Etsy and can't wait for my mer transformation! When I was a child I swam mermaid-style all the time, and I truly believed that if I wished hard enough, I could become a mermaid. It took 50 years, but my wish is finally coming true. I'm very excited to begin this journey!
