In more general terms I have been influenced by the dissonance, variety of inspiration sources and resourcefulness of 20th Century Western Art Music, the florid vocal style and high vocal angst of opera and the raw, open sexuality and tendency towards the provocative of various prominent feminist and experimental singer/songwriters of the popular music tradition, mostly of the latter part of the 20th Century and early 21st.
