Angela Sterling Forest
Angela
began composing and performing her music in 1975. Original a solo folk
guitarist, she participated in benefit concerts throughout Europe and
the U.S. supporting the grassroots non-violent anti-nuclear movement.
From 1983 to 1990, she was the lead singer for the female pop rock band
The Mix. Angela has performed in numerous theatrical productions and was
a also a singer in the 60s girl group band - The Creamettes. The demand
for her songs generated by her most recent musical group, Marble
Feather, inspired the indie record label Marble Feather Music March of
2000, which currently publishes and distributes her music world wide.
The song Wekiva
from the Marble Feather CD was selected for the soundtrack of a PBS
documentary produced by BBG productions and WMFE-TV. BBG Productions
felt Angela's sound was particularly suited to the natural sensibilities
they wanted to capture from the spring-fed, sub-tropical oasis that is
Florida's Wekiva River. The hour-long broadcast documentary Wekiva Legacy or Loss? premiered in Florida on November 15, 2000 and was then released nationally. Angela's music video of the song Wekiva was released in September 2001 and can now be viewed on YouTube.

Musical and Performance Style
Angela is a charismatic
and entrancing singer who has engaged audiences since 1981 with a
distinctive vocal gift that passionately transmits evocative and
introspective lyrics. Themes for her songs range from hopeful reminders
of our responsibility to ethically care for our environment, to the
bittersweet secrets of the psyche's interior landscape where the
timeless worlds of magical fantasy are revealed.
She is a
seasoned and dynamic stage performer who gracefully creates a natural
rapport with her audiences in any size venue. Her talents for creating
multiple vocal harmonies in a studio setting parallel the moving and
dreamy introspection of female vocalist such as Enya or Sarah McLachlan.
