Band Members: Trish Leigh CraneWelcome to my little corner of the 15th century renaissance period. A period in which I truly love. Not just for the fun, the magical kingdom, being able to play dress up..LOL...but the music as well. The Ren period was an extraordinary time for the beginnings of what would soon become one of the landmarked eras for introducing music, along with it's wonderful woodwinds and spectacular off set beats. This was truly a time when, what a person heard in their soul, they allowed to flow out from their fingertips to their instruments and voices.
So, You are cordially invited to visit our Wonderful, Magical, Holly Michigan Renaissance Festival from past years. Enjoy and HUZZAH!!!!!!Michigan Renaissance Festival 2006 and 2007Michigan Renaissance Festival 2008
Influences: Webster's explanation of the word "influence", is to sway, to gain over another, to shape or give direction.In short, the only influence that has swayed, gained over me, shaped or given direction in my life yet never waivered is none other than "Jesus Christ".I wouldn't have it any other way......But if I had to add a few influences here on this earth, The first would be my children. Whatever road we wind up on, there is one that goes before us and paves the way if we trust in him. He knows what lies ahead and makes provisions for our down times on this earth. My Children gave me strength, courage, determination, and the will to start a new life together after an 18 year marraige ended.They are the reason I am here today. Thank you God almighty for the 3 most beautiful gifts I could ever receive. And to add to that: A brand new 6 week Grandson (the first) and another Grandson (2nd) due in 4 weeks.
For the musical side of things that taught me what I truly loved in music, would have to be the following artists: christian artists:/Margaret Becker, Pam Thum, Clay Cross, Amy Grant, Kathy Trocolli, Michael W, Smith,- Blues:/ B.B. King, Etta James, and the infamous Muddy Waters.
terry goodkinde novel series: The Sword of Truth has been a phenominal influence in my Celtic writings of music. These books are filled with characters and their journeys to darkened lands, mystical images and battles of the mightiest kind. This series has been turned into a Disney Television show named, "Legend of the Seeker". If you want to experience the best of the best in Mideval stories, check the show out on saturday nights.
Here is the website to link to for information.

Though all these styles of music are important to me, Celtic and renaissance is the best way to describe myself and my music. In the character of "Lady Liddell, Mistress of Music", It allows such creativity heart that I find myself totally lost in creating a song that can sweep you away to another period in time and want to remain there for awhile.
