Her music is eclectic, reflecting influences as diverse as Ani Difranco, Violent Femmes, Regina Spektor,and Ben Harper. She was voted a chance to play at the 930 Club in 2010 and has been playing in the DC-area as well as traveling back to her homestate NC to perform. Excitedly, she will release her debut CD in April/May 2011.
