Her music has been described as freakfolk. lately self professed folk-noir… a mish mash of many types of music such as folk, blues , jazz as well as some trad, soul, rock and roll influences. She loves percussion and playing with her vocals never performing songs the same way. She has been compared to a wide variety of artists, from Fiest to Karen Dalton. She also sings and collaborates with artists in many different genres. She enjoys making music with others often as well.

notes on midheaven 2022 second album : its been a beautiful process spanning a decade with these songs… they have been created from a place of love and acceptance xxx the alchemy,, the longing ,, the frustration, anger, grief, fun , love expression, healing ,,, honesty ..peace…
