Influences: Everything I've ever heard and liked.
Right, that's a bit vague, isn't it? I suppose what I mean by that is that we are influenced by more than we are even aware of. I can name some music which I like, but it's even possible I've been influenced by music I don't like!
Music I heard as a child:
My mom's (J. Lalah Simcoe a.k.a. Judy Fine of the 1960's band, The Womenfolk), The Womenfolk, The Beatles, Elton John, The Band, Heart, Led Zeppelin, Joni Mitchell, Cream, Judy Collins, Jethro Tull, James Taylor, Frank Zappa, Stevie Wonder, Captain Beefheart, CSNY, Cat Stevens, Nick Drake, John Renbourne, Eric Satie, John MacLaughlin, Bach, Mozart, Ravi Shankar...
you name it, I loved it all. Still do.
Sounds Like: Jeff Buckley, Aimee Mann, Ben Harper, Joni Mitchell
