Why I'm Here

Just a small town girl, trying to change the world. I’m a pensive Pisces that loves classic rock, jam bands, bluegrass, and oldies. My best friend is a little blue pit named Gypsy. I studied music at the University of South Carolina and I love to enchant my friends with my Stevie Nicks covers. Music connects everyone and that is why I am so passionate about it!

City

I want to play the guitar so I can take my music and share it with everyone! Of course I can sing A Capella, but where is the fun in that? I am also inspired to play the guitar because of an ex-boyfriend I had who passed away a few years ago. We always used to sing and play together and I know he would be so proud if he could see me singing and playing by myself.
