Overview

"dreamy, brilliant vocal harmonies...Heather’s voice elegantly drifts into the opening track with a haunting beauty paralleling that of Dolores O’Riordan’s in the initial minutes of The Cranberries’ first album. (Seriously. Listen to it again. The similarities are unbelievable!)...The calm and serene tenor of the songs begs for them to be listened to in a dark room, maybe under the light of a single candle." - Justin Roberts music critic for San Diego CityBeat Magazine.

What to expect

I am available as a solo singer/songwriter, with live layered vocals and instrumentals on both acoustic and electric guitar.

When you listen, you get a mix of slow blues, alternative country, soul-folk, and indie americana. I play both original songs and covers, ranging from favorites like Patsy Cline and Bob Marley, to classics like Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, and Fleetwood Mac, and also current favorites like the Black Keys and Adele.

Additionally, I have a full 6 piece band, and can also perform as a trio, or duo.

About

'Sirens' - the debut album - brings sultry, piercing vocals, paired with soaring instrumentals and harmonies, making it a true classic. Heather writes unique songs, with an undefinable fusion of genres, for an unforgettable listening experience.

Additional booking notes

I can provide full sound equipment for all arrangements of my live set up (solo/duo/trio/full band)
