I spent my childhood listening to The Weavers, show tunes, Brand and Lehrer and my adolescence to Bromberg, Zappa, Joni and CSNY.
I got my first guitar, a Favilla from Favilla's basement, and wrote my first song at eleven years of age.
After the coffee houses and impressively massive outdoor concerts of my college days, I moved to NYC entering the folk scene on the tails of Vega and Van Ronk; sharing bills with Massengill, Eberhardt, Lavin, Hardy and RJ Elliott; playing Clearwater, Central Park and The Speakeasy.
Back on the Island, I was awarded the title of “Long Island’s favorite soul singer” by the Long Island Press, and “Hardcore Angel” by an enthusiastic fan.
After taking a chunk of time out to produce children and create new works as resident composer for the International Jewish Arts Festival of Long Island, I returned to full time writing and singing a few years back and opened for Richie Havens, Judy Collins, Susan Werner and John Gorka; released the Makin’ Lemonade EP; contributed a rendition of Ray Davies’ Looney Balloon for Paradiddle Records ’ CD “Kinks Unkovered” and completed my long awaited full-length CD Rally On! reflects her wide range of influences from Folk, Jazz, Blues, Soul and Bluegrass. Featured on the CD is some classic soul-style organ, tasty guitars, tuba, acoustic bass, cello and accordion.
