Artist Bio:
Her feet dangling from her daddy's overalls, Cindy Woolf was introduced to music by George Woolf and an old C.F. Martin Guitar from the foothills of the Ozark Mountains. Long before she discovered a penchant for love songs, train songs and travel songs, Cindy's earliest memories were of her daddy hauling her around in his overalls while he picked that Martin. She started piano at four, learned hymns from Granny on her front porch swing, then crossed genres again with her punk/pop band, 3 Apples High, in high school. "I just jumped around and sang," she said. A tape was borne, but so was an idea: "I fell in love with performing on stage."
From punk Pixies covers to canned and uncanny vocals, Cindy Woolf - "all sugar and molasses" - has since asserted herself as one of the most creative and thoughtful singer/songwriters working today. Difficult to define, Cindy's music has been called Americana, country, folk, pop and - her favorite - "hillbilly love-pop."
"Cindy Woolf doesn't sound like anyone else, a high compliment in a business full of clones and offshoots," said Dirty Linen magazine.
"Here comes Cindy Woolf, all sugar and molasses, putting her shapely Arkansas accent to work behind songs that Gillian Welch would gladly get stuck in a coal mine for," Richard Gintowt of The Pitch said. "It's humble folk music, but, as in the work of Laura Veirs or Josh Ritter, it earns its bread through the insights and clever turns in the lyrics."
