Album Notes

In the last year Dre has: - gained the highly coveted attention of a major record label. - played to thousands of people in hundreds of venues. - released her first recorded work at a sold out, highly anticipated performance. - Sold her independently produced debut cd by the hundreds. BIO As her sold out shows across California attest; Dre has realized a place to perform intense and intimate folk music that has people coming back for more. Her voice is strong and distinct; empowering listeners with lyrics that capture honest realities about everyday lives. Her ability to share truths about people is drawing an ever-growing audience to her performances. Dre was invited to play at the "Vote Your Voice" concert at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco, has shared the stage with feminist powerhouses Alix Olson and Pamela Means, has performed at the National Organization for Women's CA State Conference in L.A. Another Casualty, her first CD release, has been met with great excitement and attention. "Dre is a local folk singer who rides the fine line between message and soapbox; she's a local voice of feminist activism. As her recent sold-out CD-release show at Capitol Garage attested, Dre's talent lies not only in her voice and songwriting but also in her message. The reaction of her (mostly female) fans--ranging from enraptured silence to spontaneous outbursts of cheering and applause--attested to her skill and her ability to echo the sentiments of her audience." --Sacramento News and Review "She's managed to enrich the local music scene,...with an original, grassroots folk sound. --Outword Magazine "Her music is a call to action that we all need to hear." --Megan Seely; President California NOW
