Personal stuff:
Kinscheck grew up in Ithaca, NY across from a wheat field. She started singing 70's folk rock hits as a little girl on her guitar, also writing her own songs and dreaming of being discovered! As a preteen she sang her original music as a feature performer for the I Love NY campaign at the State Parks. Eventually, her music took her on a street tour of Europe, playing all the town squares with an open guitar case...

Oberlin Conservatory, Berklee College of Music and a whole lot of bands later, Kinscheck is still doing music for a living; Teaching voice and guitar lessons from her home studio on the side of gigging and raising two fantastic kids! She sings on the praise team at church; has put out 4 albums and is happily married to her keyboard playing audio engineer hubby, Ralph!

The Harmony Jewels, Kinscheck's A cappella singing group came together to sing a special Christmas party in 2014 and that started the ball rolling. All 4 singers are friends from church; singing together many Sundays in the praise team. This time in church taught them all to blend marvelously with lush harmonies. Their friendships radiate warmth as they enjoy performing for you and your guests. The group comes out as 4 singers, Soprano (always Julie), Alto, Tenor and Bass- but there are actually 7 members in the group that mix and match to make sure they are available for as many wonderful events as possible.
