Need a star? Let's try again.
The first person without a star to guess my favorite singer/songwriter will get a donation made in their name. Here are several hints:

I've posted about her about 100 times.
She's from Boston.
Her first band's first EP came out on 4AD in the 80s.
She's a mom.

Good Luck!

24. Talk to fellow DUer, Norton about your gal, Kristen
youse guys can have a love-in!

Anyway I need to re-up with DU so please don't "star" me.
Use it for another "incentive drive". Just like on PBS only different.

Thanks for the fun.



btw: why was Kristen particularly on your mind to-day? Did you awake with a song in your head that fit the morning's tone or something?
