NEW ALBUM

HURRICANE: Grown Woman Blues

A gritty blues and soul record with vintage R&B heat, and Brazilian undertones. This is liberation music. Songs about standards, softness, and self-respect. About loving fully — and standing firm. This is grown woman blues. 
BACK THE ALBUM

NOT BROKEN. JUST TIRED.

Most people know me from the stage.

The shows.
The voice.
The band.
The part that looks like energy.

But that’s not the whole story.

From what it takes to keep showing up—
when the pace stops making sense
and the weight doesn’t let up.

This book is part of that story.
The parts you don’t always see.

And what I learned when I stopped calling it strength
and started recognizing the cost.

If you’ve been carrying more than you should for too long—
this is for you.

Instant access to Chapter One
and a private voice note.

MUSIC
“The first thing that hits you is that this woman can sing, and she can belt It out, and she knows right when to pull it back a bit. Do you want Blues? Soul? Gospel? R&B? She has it all and a powerful voice that can rival just about anyone else around. ” - Bob Gottlieb

— No Depression Magazine

“...Her delivery is never rushed, and her ability to express deep emotion is on par with someone twice her age as she delivers everything from downhomejuke joint stylings to full-blown torch songs, all containing messages of positive affirmation. ” - Marty Gunther
