Details:
Crow is an environmental, feminist, funk, folk, fusion artist.
She resides in the Finger Lakes Region of upstate New York.

Crow's background in music is over 30 years and counting.
She is the mom of four, granny of two and recently the
focus of some folks attention because of the music she writes, plays and sings.

Crow has studied classical, plectrum and experimental guitar
techniques most of her adult life. She has also taught guitar
and music theory for many years. Before deciding to perform
professionally, Crow earned an English/Creative Writing degree
in 1992 (focus Poetry, graduated with honors as an 'older
student') from Wells, a small women's college in upstate New York.

Crow's guitar playing is highly technical, she practices rigorously and over the past 10 years has developed her own style of using the guitar as an extension of her work in the field of art.

"My vocal style comes from years of singing in choirs combined with a rebellious Appalachian lilt (I was born and raised in a small coal mining town in the Applachian mountains). My music is a reflection of my experiences in the mountains and away from them,of the things I have participated in and witnessed. My intention is to write, sing and play fearlessly in order to offer up stories of the human experience on this planet at this time."
