  • Book/Magazine + Digital Album

    In her debut collection, Buick Audra revisits events that have shaped her relationship with her own voice, literal and figurative. The essays are companion pieces to the compositions on her third album, Conversations with My Other Voice. Between the music and the prose, the audience is given an intimate look into the life of a woman in music. The book comes with a download of the album as well as a custom bookmark. Buick will sign all books purchased here.

    "On the pages of Conversations with My Other Voice, Buick Audra proves adept at handling the fallout associated with a dysfunctional childhood, while coping with the rigors of finding her voice as a multi-media artist in a world where self-acceptance is challenged on a daily basis. The result of which undertaking is the writer's hard-won right to identify as an independent woman who is blessed with the yearning to create meaningful art."

    Rodney Crowell, Musician & Author

    2. MASS: Essays on Memory, Language, & the State of Massachusetts - In her second collection, Buick Audra dives into the dark blue waters of her memory to deliver a body of work about her adolescence and early adulthood in Massachusetts. She swims between formative friendship dynamics, collaborations, and the music scene that shaped her early career. The essays serve as companion pieces to the songs of the third Friendship Commanders album, MASS. Between the music and the prose, Buick demonstrates that putting new language around older experiences can sometimes change the narrative entirely.

lyrics

I can’t take your calls
and I can’t read your writing
the snow outside just falls
maybe I can, too

I’m mad at myself (and a little bit at you)
I let myself believe
that you might really help
with the pieces still unglued

but did you hear me crying from way out there?
did you know I was trying not to be scared?
hey, I’m afraid of flying up in the air
but I do it anyway
I do it anyway
I do it anyway

I had so much fight (in my old and angry life)
I would have been crazy
with a thing like this tonight
I’d have torn us both apart

but I have a kind of peace (even if this is the end)
it’s a fragile kind of lacework
that if I want to keep
I have to take care of this heart

but did you hear me crying from way out there?
did you know I was trying not to be scared?
hey, I’m afraid of flying up in the air
but I do it anyway
I do it anyway
did you hear me crying from way out there?
did you know I was trying not to be scared?
hey, I’m afraid of flying up in the air
but I do it anyway, I do it anyway
