"Tony" by Heidi Jane

Heidi Jane has been referred to as "Susan Vega and Peter Gabriel set sea on a sea of fiddles." Nothing could be further from the truth for this independent musician living in San Francisco.

The violin is her principle instrument and she enjoys creating music that is not solely driven by the typical electric guitar foundation which sets the tone of most rock music. Nor does she take the solo acoustic approach of many folk bands. By placing violin at the forefront, she is creating a sound all her own that is a rich blend of the beautiful string instruments.

Her playing is a unique hibrid of fiddle-playing, which infuses lilting Irish accents with African and Latin Rhythms, all melting with the warm classical tone of the violin.

Simply put...she is simply amazing!
