About Me

Visit www.stacykoviak.com for more mp3s and artist information.....Stacy picked up the guitar at eleven and began composing songs shortly after. A true introvert at heart, this artist's intimate songwriting leaves you feeling connected to every song she sings. Her musical style varies as much as the list of comparisons.---------------------------------------------Sta cy recently relocated back to the midwest, but spent the past 6 years on the East coast based out of Richmond, VA. She continually makes a positive impression in local music scenes and has built up a diverse fan base throughout her career sharing the stage with various local and national bands, headlining as a solo acoustic act in clubs and performing in a variety of area Festivals. She has been a participating artist in the Richmond Music Festival and Art Expo, CAM Fest, The Carytown WM Festival, and was a featured performer in The Richmond Songwriter's Series. Stacy has received praise from the Richmond Music Journal, and her music also maintains steady air play on both XL102's "Studio B," and Y101's "Community Service" radio programs.--------------------------------------------------- --------Stacy Koviak has shared the stage with national acts such as Mat Kearney, Mute Math, Griffin House, Rose Polenzani, Regan, Sin City Revival, Jeff Black, Jubeus and countless local bands over the years. She is currently working on material for her new album - a collaboration with former VA guitarist David Patterson. ------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------.....this bio was so old I decided an updated one was well over due. When that actually happens, they'll be something interesting here to read. The basics - I play the guitar. I write songs. I sing them. I've released 3 cds so far. I'm currently working on new material. You can visit my website for more songs and info, etc. Thanks for stopping by!

treading bleu mp3 - 9 seconds.
