Thanks to me, the poor kid wound up joining the SCA*, where I first heard her sing. (Okay, she also sang in the high school's jazz choir, but it wasn't the same thing.) She had talent even then. As a teenager, she could make the loudest talkers shut up during feasts at SCA events and pay attention. > > Anyway, she's now in Santa Fe and she's released her first album. Finally.

There also are Middle Eastern influences.
