Artist description Shirra grew up in Norfolk, VA with a family that included three older brothers. She was raised on songs of sixties and early seventies, from artists like the Beatles, Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Simon and Garfunkle, Cat Stevens. Her early exposure to music included performances of folk, bluegrass, and original tunes by two of her more musically gifted brothers, Jonathan and David. Charles, the oldest, preferred to conduct but he was off to college when Shirra was only seven. Banjo, guitar, and harmonica filled the home throughout the seventies, and the mood of popular culture permeated her atmosphere.
