About

Portrait by Stella Mavrides.
Photography: Steve Gubin, Alex Maragos, Roman Sobus and Paul Vriend.
"A superb songwriter. Pure Americana." Americana UK, Alan Fitter.
Unimaginable Things, is the 4th studio release dedicated to her brother, Danny. (1960-2023). The songs have acoustic guitar-base with an old/new folk feel and textures of pedal steel guitar, traces of rock with electric guitar, and spare Hammond B3. Sharp lyrics draw you into conversations and stories.
Her recordings have been featured on folk and roots radio programs: "The Midnight Special"on WFMT-98.7FM hosted by Marilyn Rea Beyer; on Lilli Kuczma's "Folk Festival" program with live, in-studio performance and on "American Backroads", hosted by Greg Easterling on WDCB-90.9FM; conversations and live performances on Tom Jackson's "Somebody Else's Troubles"on WLUW 88.7 FM; on Ron Lewis'"Folk Show" on WNUR 89.3 FM
Her grandmother bought her a $25 guitar in Chicago's Old Town when she was 6 years old. She spent her early years in south Chicago, singing and playing at a teenage neighbor's vibrantly acoustic bathroom, learning the songs of Bob Dylan, Joan Baez and Eric Andersen, and learning how to apply thicky black eyeliner. She began writing poems in 2nd grade for her mother and wrote her first song at 14.
After graduating from Libertyville high school and from U of I, and a couple of stints at WPGU-FM, she then became a cable tv "gypsy" living in the south, northeast and west before moving back to Chicago.
A southside Chicago native, she married to George and raised two sons on the city’s north side. Sunday church choir part of her routine.
