Artist History Annie grew up singing in church, where her father (a pastor) and mother (a teacher) also played music. She soon became known apart from her parents by her bluesy "growl," and became more involved with songwriting when she took up the guitar in college. During her sophomore year she produced a demo CD using just a computer mic and recording program. Her own label (rubygirl records) was born out of this, and Annie when on to record a full length CD ("the garage sessions") in November of 2002. She then spent 6 months traveling and playing around Europe, living for the majority of her time in Sevilla, Spain. She continues to play in local San Diego coffeehouses and hopes to do more with her music, her writing, and her label.
