My instrument is my voice. Which I use as voice for support of indepedent artists and social justice. I sing and produce live and recorded work that is influenced by folk and classical music, and often represents particular cultures, eras of history, and old-world styles of singing. Through my work as Salonnoierre of Roots Salon, I revived an over 100 year old family tradition of gatherings of artists, activists, and writers, promoting community and the excellent talent in that community.
