Artist name: Maioan Person

Music style: I have my own way of saying what I feel about life and living... raw... mostly acoustic... sometimes electroninc or spoken or whatever.

Famous Similar Artist(s): Bob Dylan, Arlo Guthrie, Tracy Chapman, Ani DiFranco, Suzanne Vega, Velvet Underground

Artist Description: I am a common ordinary wood elf... both a woman and a man... a resident on planet Earth. I make music and art in order to help people understand that we are all in this together. I learned to play guitar so I could more easily relate the words I was writing at the time. My lyrics is what it is REALLY all about as they are VERY provocative and tell my view of the world we live in today. Although, I often sing about the harsh realities of this world, I always try to find the light at the end of the tunnel.

Musical influences: Bob Dylan, Pink Floyd, Ani DiFranco, Jane's Addiction, Tracy Chapman, Rage Against The Machine, Arlo Guthrie, God In A U.F.O.

Artist History: I have played my acoustic stuff all over the place over the years: around camp fires at Rainbow gatherings, at Pride Fest, at hemp rallies, at the 1996 democratic convention in chicago, at open mics in coffee houses and bars, on the boardwalk in Venice B
