Most of what I listen to now is mainstream jazz from 1935 right up to and including early bebop and cool jazz.

I've always leaned toward a feminine funky style even in business settings. I used to paint my nails blue in 1993 before it was mainstream.

A lot of punk rock is not going to be in the mainstream. It's below the radar. The beauty of it is that you're not supposed to always know. It's subterranean.

Anyway I feel myself a bit on the edge on the art world but I don't mind I'm just pursuing my work in a very excited way. And there isn't really a mainstream anymore is there?

It's wonderful to be appreciated for being quirky and to see Zooey Deschanel and the quirky indie film types get mainstream play is amazing for women because women are much more complicated than what we've see on TV in the past.
