Influences
My influences change from time to time. Right now I listen to a lot of Pink, Sara Bareilles, KT Tunstall, some Christina Aguilera, Jane Monheit, Jill Scott, Tamia, Billy Joel, Steve Vai, Lina, Ludo, Alanis Morissette, Coldplay, and many independent artists, including: Code Anchor, More Than Me, Shimmerplanet, Chris Cubetta and the Liars Club, Bryann Dunn, and Andy Mac. I also listen to quite a bit of classical, 80's, Ragtime, and anything with a good piano line. ..
