Influences: My unbelievably strong and beautiful mother, who's lullabyes comfort me even today, my incredible sisters, Isa, who showed me how to fight back fearlessly, Norma, who showed to live and die with love, Teresa, who taught me that you can come back from anything, and Mary, the bad pussy, who's quiet evil humor can make me laugh anytime. Bessie Smith, Diamond Teeth Mary, Sophie Tucker, Jeanetter McDonnald, The Andrews Sisters, Gloria Gaynor, Annie Lennox, Basia, Linda Rondstadt, Sinead O'Conner, Joan Jet, Lorrena McKennett, and a host of others. On the Latin side, Celia Cruz, Carmita Jimenez, Antonio Aguilar, Armando Manzanero, Tito Puentes, El Canario, Marc Anthony, Shakira and many, many more! I love music, wherever it comes from, and dancing. Hope you enjoy it as well.
Sounds Like: Love, for that is ultimately what we seek. Love of and for ourselves, and the sentient beings and experiences that weave themselves into the tapestry of our lives. Peace.
