小简介
在Polly Paulusma的MYSPACE上看到乐队的成员列表时，我张大嘴巴细细数了下她一个人究竟担当了多少角色，十二项~！从她官网上砾小、繁杂的文字来看，这是一个极具个性与活力的女人，听她的歌，一定不能忽视她所想要表现的精神主旨，与我上张写的Alexa Wilkinson不同，虽然Polly Paulusma也是用每一首歌在告诉你一个故事，但她却是想告诉你：也许你也能在她的音乐里找到相同的悲伤~！
Polly Paulusma是个出生于英国的唱作人，从小便显示出她叛逆、独立、坚强的个性，2004年第一次尝试做为唱作人出版了她的DEBUT，复古味道的封面，彰显着她独特的个性声音，特别值得一提的是，这张专辑里有四首歌，尝试了无打击乐、无吉他的弦乐四重奏，比较有个性（07年新专辑里好象没有，可惜）。

British singer/songwriter Polly Paulusma began her musical career -- with reluctance -- by way of childhood piano lessons. By the age of ten, she had co-opted the melody of a Paul McCartney song and substituted her own lyrics. Though it was Paulusma's first songwriting effort, it would not be her last. Inspired by the "baggy" music scene of the early '90s, as well as artists Joni Mitchell and Nick Drake, a now teenaged Paulusma learned guitar and began performing for friends at school. She began writing her own songs, but put this activity on hold while attending college. (She did continue to perform as a member of a soul-funk cover band.) After graduation, Paulusma resumed performing her own material, but only as a hobby -- convinced that she could not make a career with her music, she tried a number of different ventures, including returning to school to earn a Ph.D. (she dropped out after one term), working as a researcher at the BBC World Service, and placing a novel manuscript with a literary agent. However, none of these activities were as fulfilling as her music; by the time she was invited to sing backing vocals for the Ben & Jason album Ten Songs About You, she had decided to return to music full-time. After two years of playing solo acoustic gigs, she released her first album, Scissors in My Pocket, in 2004. Sadly, her excitement over her debut would be cut short a mere two weeks after its release -- while touring in support of the album, Paulusma suffered the first of two miscarriages. The losses brought her close to abandoning music altogether, but instead she channeled her sorrow into songwriting. While recording her second album, Paulusma discovered that she was pregnant once again, and in November 2006 she gave birth to a daughter. Fingers & Thumbs was released in 2007.
