An acoustic folk singer whose music has stayed steady and personal for over two decades.
For a good frame, try 'Open My Hands' or 'Beautiful Child.' They're quiet, plain, and typical of her.
Her songs are straightforward and melodic, often working with themes of faith and personal reflection. You can hear this in tracks like 'Open My Hands' and 'Every Minute.' Her 2000 album 'All the Way Home' included the title track that became a hit, and she has continued to release music steadily, with albums like 'Floodplain' in 2015 and 'Wabi Sabi' in 2022.
She started putting out albums in the late 1990s, with early records like 'Conversations' and 'Common Thread' establishing her acoustic folk style. In 2009, she was diagnosed with breast cancer, and that experience informed some of her writing afterward, including the song 'Called.' She has often collaborated with musicians including guitarist Erik Eason and bassist John Mark Painter.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
