What is one of your earliest memories of music?
I remember listening to an Amy Grant cassette in my Mom’s Camero, freezing our butts off while the heater warmed up!

Who are some of your favorite artists and why?
I still love Amy ‘cause she was the first mover of my soul! Patty Griffin because she has a voice that haunts me and gives me chills! Greg Laswell because his music gives me something new every time I listen…which is a lot! Ingrid Michaelson because she writes songs I wish I had written and because she just makes me feel content.

What do you like about working with Magnolia Red?
I like that I have a team around me to help put things in place that one person cannot do alone. Artists that think they can manage it all by themselves are either stupid…or stupider. I also like that I can both flirt and fight with my husband on the job!

Favorite rodent or marsupial?
