About Me

Check this funny video on You-Tube featuring Teryl's Song "Peel Me a Grape."Since the age of 6 Teryl has been making a name for herself all throughout the nation. Teryl has been asked to perform and tour throughout the US and Europe and has sang in some of the most prestigious choirs in the world such as Genesis Vocal Jazz, which she recorded an album for Capitol Records, and the Oregon Bach Festival Chorus, for which she sang for numerous recordings. She has also had the priviledge of being asked to sing at Carnegie Hall in New York City, and at a Mass for St. Peter's Basilica in Rome, Italy. A classically trained artist in Opera and jazz, she also plays the piano and guitar. She has been lucky enough to have trained with some of the worlds most famous artists including Helmut Rilling, Anton Armstrong, Ruth Brown, Dave Barduhn , Elise Rose and Henry Butler. Teryl has sung with numerous opera companies and has performed several leading roles in many plays/ musicals by regional theater troupes. She is fluent in French and can sing German, Italian, Spanish and Latin as well. In the summer of 2004 Teryl began recording her debut album, "La Vie En Rose," which was release in 2005. She recorded at Blackberry Hill Studios in Eugene, OR. She also recorded a few songs for the next album by Raging Family and is also the featured artist on the soundtrack for the Independant Feature Film "Pizza Girl," in select theaters now (for more information visit www.pizzagirlmovie.com).
