ATHENA

Hailing from the West Coast, soul songstress Athena comes to the City of Saints to contribute her holy vocals and instruments to the roots music scene. Performing at a range of venues, including Grumpy's for the established Chick Pickin' Mondays, Athena will be picking away at the strings of her folk-infused guitar, delighting listeners of all kinds. Jazz Fest 2011, perhaps?
