Brenda Freed
(Austin TX)

 

Performance Date

Voice Workshop Facutly - Tuesday, June 5

A lover of adventure, Brenda has traveled spontaneously in Europe, Mexico, Canada, Thailand, Hong Kong and Japan. She has covered most of the U.S., including a 9,000-mile bicycle trip that brought her to Texas from Iowa (by way of Canada, Nova Scotia and the East Coast) in 1991, guitar in tow.   She arrived in Texas at the time of the Kerrville Folk Festival. She worked on staff and performed in the staff concert.   She decided to stay in Texas one year to work, save money, write songs and pursue performing in Austin all while finishing her thesis for her MA in Music Education/Music Therapy, and then continue on the bike trip at the end of that year.   She did everything she planned EXCEPT save money and pedal out of Texas.   It was the end of the bicycle trip and the start of Brenda's career as a singer/songwriter.
