Live gigs with Josh Fox on guitar, Carl Spataro on drums, and Ian Baggette on bass.
My friend Victoria Theodore, keyboard player for Stevie Wonder, is the pianist with the mad chops who plays on all the tracks of my EP Better By Far. Jon Arkin did the percussion, and sweet Dave Bell laid down the guitar.
Influences
Bono, Leonard Cohen, Shawn Colvin, Ella Fitzgerald, the Indigo Girls, the LA guitar quartet, Joni Mitchell, Gregory Page, Dawn Upshaw, Suzanne Vega, Tom Waits, The Weepies, Gillian Welch. And butter. Especially when mixed with sugar and salt.
Sounds Like
Allison Krauss meets Ella Fitzgerald, with a pinch of Tina Fey for sass.

Hi Elaine, Your presence is requested at Postcrypt Coffeehouse @ Columbia University this Saturday the 28th. I'm playing the 9:30 set. All acoustic, no mics, free popcorn.
Take the 1 train to 116th, enter the campus at 116th & Broadway, and ask for directions to St. Paul's Chapel. Postcrypt is in the basement of the chapel.
It is a great day to be bright! What Question can I ask to empower myself and others? How can I improve the experience of those I encounter today? What can I do to facilitate your Gift?
Yesterday Is History Tomorrow is a Mystery Today is a Gift... That's why we call it the Present
