Miss River
STREAM IT:
The mythic Mississippi River and surrounding waters flooded my heart and my home, to become the medium of my music and keeper of my hope in a place where we are literally sinking. In light of a greater appreciation for who rivers are, their songs, epic patience and never-ending love, I offer you my best – a collaboration with the Mississippi River.

SARAH QUINTANA
A fierce guitarist with an angelic voice—Sarah Quintana weaves the rich influences of cajun, jazz and folk music into her songwriting. Quintana is looking back on a decade of music—collaborations with Louisiana-based artists like Michael Doucet, The Generationals, Leyla McCalla, The New Orleans Moonshiners.
"Quintana is a great addition to New Orleans expression. Her music is refreshing as rainfall."
