Influences: Her influences are in early 70's folk like Crosby Stills and Nash, James Taylor, Joni Mitchell, and Judy Collins, and the late Laura Nyro. Later influences are in the sounds of Annie Lennox and Susan Vega. Inspirations in Jazz include Sarah Vaughan, Alice Coltrane, and Pharoah Sanders. Inspired by three extremely talented peers...Vicki Genfan, Kym Tuvim and Erika Luckett.
Sounds Like: One of my US reviewers described me with the following. "Think David Crosby meets Joni Mitchell on the dark side of Annie Lennox street."My French reviewers at Crossroads Magazine throw in a bit of Ricki Lee Jones, Carol King with a Latin feel, and Sade.Take your pick, or combine:-)
