Has been singing since the mid-sixties, starting with her sister, Kathy, performing folk music at coffeehouses in the Boston area, such as the Unicorn Coffeehouse and the King’s Rook even opening several times for the Kingston Trio in the 70’s. She has travelled much of the country singing Irish music, original folk-rock music, country-rock music in the 80’s, and has made several trips to Nashville, where she placed two original songs with two major publishing firms and almost moved there in the early 90’s....but her roots are in New England. She spent a year and a half writing and performing in an original funk band in the Boston area, the Boston Horns and also explored some jazz and blues combinations.
