I am an Indie Woman! My mother brought me up that way – Independent and in control of my own destiny. In 2013 I Reentered the music scene as a solo artist after being in cover bands, touring, and then having kids. Every day I feel a strong pull to write music, and that’s what I’m doing! I love to produce showcases featuring female artists and have been doing that for a few years now. A few years back I was honored to produce a Women Of Substance Showcase in San Diego!⠀ ⠀
I front my own band, Messengers. Our CD was produced by Josquin Des Pres (Jason Mraz, etc) at Track Star Recording Studios. Some super-talented people were involved with the CD, including Scott Gorham (Cher, Richard Marx) and my wonderfully talented and supportive band members: Randy Hodge, Paul Mcgee, John Rodriguez. I hope you like the Indie Pop and Rock music on our CD! ⠀ ⠀
Just recently I’ve completed my Children’s Picture Sing-Along Songbook, called In My Own Backyard. There are 16 songs on this CD, and some of them cross over to Indie pop, like “I Forgot To Ask The Angels” and more! I self-published this CD/Picture Book.

Donna shared with me what it means to her personally be an indie music woman artist:⠀
“Being an Indie Woman Artist means knowing who you are as an artist, and doing your best to represent that. For me personally, I feel it’s my duty as a citizen of earth to bring forward music that lifts your energy, expands your ideas and empowers every listener to be more true to themselves.”⠀

You can hear the Messengers’ single, “One”, on the Indie Music Women’s Spotify playlist.
