Over the last few years I was faced with decisions that often took me inwards and made me question the core of my creativity, 'What drives me to make art and how much would I be willing to sacrifice for it?' I mulled over calling the record 'Reflections" 'or 'Patterns,' but landed on Edge of the Earth, because oftentimes these decisions would take me to the edge of an unknown and leave me wondering if I was ready to take a leap of faith. I can\u2019t say I was ready , but I can tell you how it felt, and it is in these songs.\u201d   My thanks to journalist Lynn Saxburg  for taking all of us through the highs and lows of Aysanabee's early childhood and adult life.
