featured on TV and in film. Nancy took home the coveted Philadelphia
City Paper Music Award for Best Folk Performer in 2002. She has been
collaborating with musicians, writing in genres from pop to rock to
folk for many years but was always a teacher and a poet first and
draws from that well of experience with every song and workshop. She
was a featured vocalist in the Philadelphia band Slo-Mo and on their
acclaimed release "My Buzz Comes Back," and lends her vocals to a
new CA-based project Indignitaries. She ran a successful songwriting
workshop at a college in Dublin in 2005/6. With three successful

newest album with the band Sunflowers in Fall of 2008. She always
looks forward to a trip home to run the Song Writing Workshop and
this will be her 11th Year at the Winter Getaway!
