    i was born and raised in southern california,graduated from fisk university in nashville with a degree in biology. while there, i was a jubilee singer and toured extensively.i then went to howard university and studied composition and jazz and got a second bachelors and a masters.i moved to new york with my band hue, a trio of violin, piano and cello.there were three of us and we all sang and played. for years, i sang and played piano and wrote songs about love and life. couple of years ago, i picked up a guitar and fell in love and continue to write songs about love , life and now angst as well. it sort of lends itself to the guitar. last year, i picked up the cello and again, fell in love. being a musician has allowed me to perform with and open for many amazing folks and i feel blessed to have known them as well as share the stage with them. barbra streisand, vinx, the five blind boys of alabama, v. jeffery smith of the family stand, corey glover of living color, the indigo girls,me'shell n'dege o'cello,vernon reid, ntsikelelo cekwana, sekou sundiata ,andy milne, simone...just to name a few. i now work primarily with the soulfolk experience, consisting of me, david pilgrim and v. jeffery smith. we have just released our first collection of songs on itunes and amazon. my previous cd , enter redemption, is available on maritri.net through paypal. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ............ ...... .......... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ....
