BIOGRAPHY

I am a 27 year old mother of two. Two rotten boys. My oldest is seven and my youngest is two. They are my whole heart. I am married to a good man. He is a fireman and loves his job! I recently graduated from college with my Associate's degree in Web Technology. I am a very spirited person; a little shy, but once you get to know me, I come around. As far as my music, what can I say except that IT"S IN ME! I make the music I love whether anyone else loves it or not.

INFLUENCES

I grew up very poor and I lost my father when I was very young. He never had a lot to leave us but he left me his passion for music. He always used to say that "Music is Free". He made his own music. We may not have had much money but music made our lives meaningful and fun! After my father passed away, music became my way of keeping him here with me. It's in my BLOOD! So, I would have to say he is my biggest influence.

Cadillac Sky

Cadillac Sky should be a lot more tired. It’s early Saturday afternoon at MerleFest and the band–Bryan Simpson, Matt Menefree, Andrew Moritz, Ross Holmes and newest addition David Mayfield–has already logged two performances on the day....

Sessions: David Bazan

It was pretty slow. I mean, I played [the songs] on acoustic guitar for a long time, but I didn’t know how to transfer them to the other format. I didn’t want it to be a solo acoustic record. I wanted there to be bells and whistles and full band arrangements even if I didn’t want it necessarily to be electric guitar rock....

Sessions: Vetiver

“It’s always slightly confounding to me whenever Vetiver is depicted with the same tropes that people have read off of press sheets,” says Andy Cabic. “The same sort of milestones get mentioned but then no one really digs to find out that there are those other things going on.”

On Track: Josh Turner

“It’s pretty secluded and private out here,” he says of the homestead he shares with wife, Jennifer, and their two boys, Hampton, three years old, and Colby, just seven months.
