Vanessa Carlton’s Teen People Diary

In the February issue of Teen People, Vanessa Carlton’s has a segment called Vanessa’s Diary. It reads, “So you wanna know what I’m going through? Well, I’ve been in San Francisco recording my sophomore album. My days usually consist of waking up and driving to ballet class, where I proceed to sweat my brains out. As noon approaches, I head to the studio and meet up with Stephan Jenkins, my producer. Yes, I also date him (what a coup!). He’s the fantastic songwriter and the frontman for Third Eye Blind. After two months of discussions, tantrums and revelations, I am more than halfway through my record. I’ve decided to name it ‘Harmonium’, and it’ll be out later this year. This is my grassroots record-no bells and whistles, no drumloops, just harmonies and rhythms.”
