About Me

I'm Kristen from Madison Wisconsin, and this is one or two demos of some songs I play, sing, made up or stole. I have past lives as an actor and a dancer. I sing lady-vocals & pick mandolin for Earl Foss' Brown Derby, and you should check our calendar for the latest gigs (www.myspace.com/brownderby).

Other distractions include bluegrass/old time band The StringRays; W/ family (Dad Mike and baby sister Nora) on demand; learning to play the mandolin better, learning to play the fiddle good enough that you'd want to listen.

Here's what to expect when you come to a show, or pick yourself up a copy of "This Drinkin' Life":
