“SOME REALLY GOOD SHIT!” – Tulane radio - Of French and Indian heritage, Pocahontas grew up on the Gulf Coast listening to her dad play Willie Nelson records upstairs and her brother spinning the Velvet Underground in the basement. At the age of 18 she moved to the city of New Orleans to study Music Therapy at Loyola University where her guitar professor encouraged her to drop out of music school and pursue a career in songwriting. Listening to the sage advice, she spent some time in Nashville refining her songwriting skills and playing the Nashville songwriter venues. She returned to New Orleans to record her debut album with her New Orleans rock band, The Pagan Romantics, which has topped college radio charts across the country and enjoyed rave reviews. She was called "Pocahontas" by legendary rock guitarist Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top during his frequent visits to the French Quarter and the moniker inevitably became her stage name. She was a featured artist in U2's film "Music Rising", they licensed her song "Life in a Box" for the soundtrack. While residing in Austin, TX she was also a featured artist at 2007 SXSW Fest with Wayne Coyne of the Flaming Lips for Jay Leno and the Tonight Show. "She plays the seductress, lures you inside, and then shoves your face in your own desperation.” -OffBeat Magazine. After almost two years of writing and recording in Texas, Pocahontas returned to New Orleans to reunite with her fellow female singer-songwriters and develop the funk rock trio The VooDoo Dolls. She also rejoined her voice teacher/choir director in the internationally renown St. Peter-Claver Gospel Choir where she performs weekly on Sundays in the historic Treme district of New Orleans. "Mixing the inherent cultural oddity of New Orleans with the oasis of musical weirdness that is Austin, Texas, she warbles tremulously like PJ Harvey demoing Tom Waits' songs of emotional apocalypse. Her band roars with breathless ferocity that cross-pollinates Magic Band quirk and Wilco substance with Nico-centric chamber rock poetry rants, resulting in an album that is compelling and disquieting in equal measure. The Pagan Romantics was dealt a set-back when Hurricane Katrina soaked the first printing (the review copies are the actual water-damaged-and-sanitized discs that were swallowed by the breached levees), but she has clearly countered with a sonic storm of her own." — Brian Baker, HARP Magazine
