Want to hear three totally unique yet complementary out-of-the-mainstream voices? Both in poetry and musicianship, Terry, Becky and Elise defy typical music categories while clearly drawing on folk, rock, jazz and non-western cultural rhythms and melodies. Their trio magically combines the surprising individual sensibility of each of these women who have fearlessly pursued an artist’s drive for self-expression. Want to resonate with notions of responsible connection to other people, nature, and the challenging world around us? Sing along with the deep and delightful songs these women share so soulfully.”
~ Donna Calame, Sunday Concert Series, San Francisco CA

A song of APPRECIATION recorded here with Mick Kinney (piano) & Lisset Rodés (percussion & vocal harmony). Now a staple at the Global Village Project to show our gratitude for the many people who make it possible to offer a good education to teenage refugee girls!
