Kerri POwers
KERRI POWERS - Songwriter The power comes from all angles: the words, scenes, and characters, as well as Powers' seductively smoky voice and a musical backdrop that borrows from blues, trad country, folk at its most piercing and rock. THE FACTS: Kerri was born in Southeastern Massachusetts and comes from a very creative and musical family. Her mother is a visual artist - an Impressionist. Kerri's grandmother played piano for the silent movies. Kerri started playing guitar and writing songs when she was eight years old. She has been a touring songwriter for over 10 years. Her middle name is Mud. (No, not really, it's Elizabeth.) The first song Kerri wrote that received airplay was called, "Down By the Lake." The only recording of it is on cassette and is now tucked away in her "Suckage" archives - a fairly considerable collection from years ago. She is a visual artist as well, an abstract expressionist and exhibits her work throughout New England as well as via the net.

She was the 3rd Place winner in the Telluride Bluegrass Festival's Troubador Songwriting contest, 2009. She slept in a pup tent for 5 days and learned the true meaning of "festivarian." Kerri was a songwriting finalist @ Kerrville Folk Festival, Kerrville, TX and has played popular festivals throughout the United States, including but not limited to: Telluride, Co., Philadelphia Folk Festival, PA, Newport Folk Festival, RI (songwriter's stage), Boston Folk Festival, as well as being invited to perform at Strawberry Music Festival, 2010. She recently toured The Netherlands, Belgium, and UK with songwriter Fred Eaglesmith and has continued touring as well as receiving considerable airplay throughout the United States. Kerri is also working on a children's book, featuring Lilly Mae Wirebangs, her sidekick. Drop us a line ... CONTACT: kepworks@gmail.com
