Heidi Hellbender was born in a shack in the woods of Glendale, Oregon to singer turned mental health counselor Carol Grigg and football hero turned high school coach, Tom Grigg. Given a guitar at age three, it wasn't until brother, Nathan, sat down at the piano that Heidi found her niche as a singer and musical collaborator. The years ahead are filled with countless music involvements as Heidi has always been in high demand as a singer. Okay, lets just start at the beginning, but let's go backwards.....
2006-2007: Heidi Hellbender (the solo project), Portland, Or: Currently Heidi Hellbender, guitar and vocals, Fred Chalenor, bass, Bob Shoemaker, guitar. After her (second) marriage failed, Heidi found herself with enough time and space to relearn how to play guitar, and began writing songs. Initially, she was content just to make herself cry with sad melodies and heartfelt lyrics in the privacy of her own home. But eventually, the songs leaked out, and she decided to "go public." He

You've gotta hear this
author: Doug Peeples
Heidi's songs on come home are simple, sometimes gut-wrenching - and gorgeous. She's taken a slice of real honesttogod country and made it her own. Add her incredibly versatile voice and subtle guitar work, as well as her top flight guest musicians, and you have a collection of some of the finest solo work around. A word of warning, though: it ain't background music for washing the dishes. Sit down, sit still - and listen. I can't really pick a favorite song - and that's rare. They're all great. But that's what I expect from someone with Heidi's talent and knowledge of how to put a song together and perform it.

instantly unforgettable!

I've always been thoroughly impressed with Heidi as a singer and performer. Her solo debut Come Home is a one-two punch of great melodies and accomplished songwriting. Daddy Don't Worry, Miss Elena, and Why'd You Go And Marry Me are such memorable tunes you will be singing along with the choruses on the first listen and then for the rest of the day. Most songwriters are lucky to reach this level of melodic sensibility by their third album and Heidi Hellbender does it right out the gate. Buy this CD!

The Hospital song Is so full of deep emotion. If no one has ever experianced what Heidi is delivering in this song , They will, It brings up a truth and sadness of the way things just are WHEN YOU MAKE PLANS YOU GET LIFE, and what it throws at you It's a Brilliant song.
Miss Elana . Is a fun latin istic flavor and very fun to listen to . Heidi's guitar playing reminds me of the fun rythamic style of other LADY LUSH artist Morgan Grace. In all COME HOME is a great debut for Miss Heidi Hellbender, And another shinning GEM of what portland's great women song writers are brewing up . PAY ATTENTION THEY ARE GREAT.
