Keep Me Close (original song) - Kay Clarity
Video footage with a new edit from a walk in Saskatchewan in 2017. Jeans & sandals long gone. Same childlike wandering and staring into the world. Join me on a dreamscape to an original song, "Keep Me Close." Lyrics and words to poem "Quiet Love Heals" below.

Every musician has an underpinning philosophy. That's very different than when our work becomes propaganda. As a conservative woman, musician, writer, and artist in a mostly liberal creative world, that authentic ethos for home, family, faith, freedom, history, goodness, beauty, truth, and real stories is what I hope leaks through.
_______________________________
Keep Me Close
I have never seen such light before;
I have never known such warmth.
I have always fought to find my home--
Never thought it'd find me first.
You have given me what I have lost
Through the carelessness of them:
All their broken deeds and lying love;
You have built me back again.
If I walk alone again tonight
I don't know where I will go--
Where these streets will wind, what feet will find,
If I'll lose me in the cold.
So keep me close
At your side
Never go;
I'll be fine, I'll be fine.
In the morning I will wake from sleep,
As the colours cover me;
No more black and white upon my skin--
No more ice inside my bones.
Quiet Love Heals
Quiet love heals
Many still-buried violences--
Pours in, just so, steady,
Awakening the silences:
Slowly, slowly caressing
The fine, thin delicate places of skin--
The darknesses that hide within the pitied spaces:
A vibrancy and lustre in the grey, wake of death;
The joyful repair,
The innocent, inquisitive eyes
Of a beloved.

Away From the Roll of the Sea (cover) - Kay Clarity
A conservative artist exists! Join me for 2021: https://www.kayclarity.art/2021
This is a Canadian folk song, as I am a happy Canadian patriot! National identities are beautiful. I'm sad Canada has lost so much of hers: I hope we can still revive our history.

Big Yellow Taxi - Joni Mitchell (cover by Kay Clarity)
A wonderful classic. Joni & I are from the same hometown - Saskatoon, Saskatchewan in Canada.

Imagine every month, pouring your glass of wine or scotch or hot tea, curling up in solitude or with someone you love, and enjoying music, images, poetry, and thoughtful commentary on art and culture. You finish feeling heartened, relaxed, and more fully human.
This offering is, I believe, entirely unique. I don't know anyone else offering something like this at all--especially someone conservative
$50 for the whole year (just for a few more days) for an exclusive membership to a beautiful, elegant monthly art experience, reflecting the thoughtfully conservative heart.
It's going to be a monthly cultural 'zone of freedom'--no ideology, no censorship, no market-driven frenzy:
just beauty and goodness that reflects the deepest conservative values.
This also makes a great last-minute Christmas gift, with no worries about delays with the clogged postal system! (if you buy two, I'll follow-up with you to ask who the second is for & send them a personal note on Christmas Day; or, you can let me know here or via email).

This song was filmed by Darryl Millette in Saskatoon, Canada two winters ago. The snow is real, and took place while we were filming, so we spliced it in.
This is also my late grandfather's favourite song, so I share in his honour also.
