Kori’s saga of her musical quest to share her soul stemmed from her childhood. Ever since Kori can remember, music has always painted imagery in her mind. She was always listening to something on the record player in her home in Minnesota and Texas. Her favorites were Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass Band as well as many of her classical favorites. ” I remember when I was little, and sitting next to the record player putting my head down to the speakers to hear everything going on”, says Kori. ” I was amazed at the varied instrumentation that brought the songs I loved so much together”. Kori also had a tape player with headphones ” I would fall asleep listening to John William’s “Star Wars Soundtrack”. She heard the Beatles on the radio and began to plunk out tunes on the piano and as she figured out the songs without any musical knowlege, she knew that she wanted to play the piano right then. She took piano lessons, listened to many varied artists and at age 14 began to compose music.

Her parents did not know what to do with her talents. At 16, Kori found a small recording studio in Texas and recorded two songs. ” I loved doing that so much, I just knew this was something I had and wanted to do!” says Kori regarding her experience.

At 18, Kori moved to Idaho to go to college and was classically trained. Eventually she had to return back to Texas. She worked and continued to compose her music. She ended up moving to San Diego, California. Kori met her husband and they married in 1991.

    well.. marketing music is a tricky thing. I plan on releasing Trillium in a "heavy handed" marketing campaign. We'll see how it goes! You can listen to the new tracks in progress at my website. Believe me when I tell you, I have some excellent guests coming on board, Jeff Oster, Aeone, Tom Shinness, Randy Landas, Jim McCarty, Jeff Silverman. I have more to say, but want to keep it a surprise after I go in studio with the musicians that are forthcoming and working with me in November.

    Even to a metalhead like me, this stuff is insanely well-written. I am simply astounded that you only have 100 or so listeners. After all, THIS is the stuff people should be listening to, not the works of Soulja Boy, who puts in 1/100 of the effort of accomplished musicians to earn 100 times their fame. The first chance I get, I'm buying your CDs on iTunes. Oh, and good luck on Last.fm. A friend request is always welcome, seeing as I seldom bother to add people myself.... HM.
