Kristin Hoffmann (Sept. 7) - A Stamford native and Greenwich Academy alum Kristin's music is equal parts soulful and playful, joyful and lamenting, serious and flippant--diverse dichotomies expressed in a rock genre. Years of classical training at NYU and Julliard are ever present in her musical theory, technical ability, passion and dynamics. While she cites popular influences, such as Joni Mitchell and Tori Amos, Kristin's music is simply her own -- a captivating singularity that leaves her audiences richly fulfilled. www.KristinHoffmann.com
