ARIA SOUDER

Born in Minnesota, singer/songwriter Aria Souder debuted in Scotland, performing in the 2007 Edinburgh Fringe Festival. She recorded 'The end of another story' among Scottish castles on the Isle of Mull. Her music is soul-baring and truthful, she elegantly puts stories to song, celebrating questions with an underlying sympathy for humanity. Since her return to Minnesota, listeners and musicians alike, have welcomed her music to the local scene.
