Details:
Ellen Lerner is a true singer/songwriter. She tells stories.
Listeners are so amazed as to how Lerner can get so many characters in her novel-like lyrics to come alive within such a simple delivery.
Lerner has a very special relationship with her songs and her audience. She explains, "What is really me is singing a story that is my own or that I can make my own. That honesty comes across in my work. Sometimes there is a lyric that I do not want in there, but I cannot change it, because that line is the truth- my truth.
I knew since I was small that this was my calling. I have been writing all of my life and I hope to never stop."
Ellen Lerner is discovering things about herself through music. She travels the distance between musical heros and her very own unique sound, from reflections on her own upbringing to raising a son, and discovering anew what her message means in a different time and place. It is a triumph of mastering a new stage of life upon the stage of music- her very first love.
