Folk/Blues Singer Liz Kennedy Gears Up for Live Performances in 2014; SPEED BUMP Album
Liz Kennedy (www.lizkennedymusic.com) had been composing wordless songs on the piano since she was 12, always wondering who was going to come along and finish them for her.

She worried that one sharp critique could destroy her deep connection to something that had always been her greatest passion.
