"The audience continues to swell, mesmerized by a young, raven-haired singer who dances a fine line between passion, frenzy and anger. The young lady in question stands barely over five feet tall, dancing barefoot, swinging a guitar and wailing with an authority twice her age.
Commonly considered an indie-rock artist, her delivery crosses genre boundaries, tying together jazz-era torch crooning, classic rock swagger, folk intimacy and bluesy passion.
Her name is Fiawna Forté."
