Teri's 2004 self titled debut CD. A fearlessly intimate & arresting album. The largely solo acoustic performance brings you into the personal journey of this songwriter. Her soulful voice brings immediate emotional impact to every song delivered. Teri starts with country/gospel vocal a capella piece "Faith" then draws you inside the forgiving "Accidents Will Happen". She concludes the CD with super luscious beats driven remix of love song "Eternally, Perpetually". The hybrid of sounds has drawn comparisons to many iconic vocalists from Nina Simone & Bjork to Norah Jones & Ani Difranco to Edith Piaf & Bebel Gilberto. This album features production and a remix by Jamie Lemoine of electronica group Westside Chemical, Stephen Smith on bass for 5 tracks and Rich McCulley on dobro for "The Wedding of Heidi & Jason" .
