Raven's Waltz was influenced by jazz, blues, great story tellers and songwriters. Brooke has arrived in Asheville NC and teamed up with Sarah Carlyle on upright bass, Karin Lyle on violin, and Alan McRae on drums and are gigging locally and working on a new album of original material. They perform roots/folk rock and crooner jazz all over the south and enjoy singing memorizing harmonies, telling story songs and influencing people to drink and dance excessively.
