Her advice to fellow musicians is pretty awesome: “When you have the opportunity to play, whether for one person or 100, take it.  Music has an amazing ability to bring any age together,” she said. ”Stories are told through music without saying a word.  Music can create a strong resonance with everyone, especially when performed with a smile on your face & glitter in your hair. Go out & find your song to play to the world, for there is one for everyone if only we listen.”
