Washington DC Pop Singer 1
This Washington DC Pop Singer is classically trained in voice, piano, and cello. She began her singer/songwriter career at age 16 when she got her hands on her first guitar. Already rewarded for her musicality with All-State recognition and roles in Summer-stock theatre, songwriting came naturally to this young talent who has quickly proven herself a prolific writer of thought provoking jazzy pop songs in the vein of Fiona Apple, Jewel, Ani Difranco, and Nellie McKay.
Since graduating from Wesleyan University with a BA in Music, this Washington DC Pop Singer has made Washington DC her home. She has opened for Eli Matthson (America's Got Talent) and Emi Meyer at the National Cherry Blossom Festival, has played Celebrate Fairfax (headliners included Joan Jett, Blues Traveler, and Ok Go), opened for Theresa Andersson, a Swedish musician featured in 'Rolling Stone', at DC9, and played with Rosi Golan at Bloombars. She heads the local chapter of an international music networking organization and has performed and sold out of her debut cd in venues across New England and the Mid-Atlantic states.
