About Tricia :
Receiving her first guitar as an unexpected holiday gift at the age of 5(ish), Tricia's interest in music was prodded and poked. Not taking full advantage of that beginner guitar until the age of 14, she spent her early years focusing on singing along to her parents' Billy Joel, Eric Clapton, and Prince albums until her vocal cords went raw.
Picking the guitar back up in middle school, Tricia forged her way into the Northern Chicago suburban music scene as a female front-woman in a few different bands. Halfway through college, she found herself in a semi-succesful indie-rock band called Tall Tale. However, her studies sent her to Paris, France for half a year, and the band broke up.
In Paris, Tricia rekindled her love for her acoustic guitar. She went around playing open mics every week, and was able to develop her own solo sound in the grungy but welcoming bars of the historic city.
Upon her return, she switched back to her electric guitar, but kept that acoustic finger-ficking style she developed in France. She added effect pedals to her act, and pushed her vocal capabilities further and further.
Pulling from past experiences and new ones, Tricia is now a confident guitarist and vocalist who is able to stand on her own as a solo musician, or add to the larger works of collaborating musicians.

ONE Condoms Music Promotion:
ONE Condoms recently added me to their roster of up-and-coming musicians to help promote their product and healthy lifestyles to music fans across the country. Following intensive studies of HIV/AIDS awareness campaigns for my Undergraduate Thesis this past spring, I thought this partnership with ONE Condoms would be more than appropriate. Check out their website and download free music from other musicians who are also participating! And be sure to look for free samples of their products at my shows - I've got plenty to go around!

Holding Out on You
there's a red pair
of velvet lips
over on the bookcase
next to the candles
framed by a black frame
with brown designs on it
and I recognize the shapes but not the face, no
in the next frame
the year was 1996
it was sunnier than anticipated
your squinty eyes proved it
and the snow looked fresh
and your face was pink with cold
and I recognize the face but not the place, no
here we go again
we've spent our time
with glass cups pressed firmly on our earlobes
and we've heard messages
in muffled tones, in muffled tones
and I and I and I and I and I and I've been holding out on you
I've been holding out on you
well you're the next craze
you're the apple on my head
you're the voice that sits upon my shoulder
telling me things I dread
and I am trying to ignore you
to no avail, I can't help but hear every word
