About Me

..


This is the indie-folk solo project for vocalist of dream-pop local Oakland band Sentinel. Having taught herself guitar, and other instruments, music has become a natural extension of her poetry writing. Gatherman Productions recorded and released her debut album Demons, in 2006. New material and four track recordings for new album of 2009: Wandering Landscapes coming one day soon.
